Maximum filesize of one file

[Dietmar Stein]

Hi guys,

not really the topic - I know - but I read that the maximum size of one
file is currently 2GB on linux like on other operating systems (e.g
HP-UX supports filesizes above 2GB but HP does not take support for it).

Is there a way to increase the size for testing? I was looking for a
parameter in the kernel like ulimit but didn't find until now. Can
someone tell me how to change/increase?

To answers unasked questions: I am using SuSE linux 6.0 with kernel
2.0.36.
