I have seen the same 2 GB problem on my IRIX running 6.5.17 using an XFS file system. I backup my Windows box to our SGI server and the backup file is about 5.5GB when finished. This was working fine with samba 2.2.4 but as soon as I upgraded to 2.2.7 it stops the transfer at the 2GB limit exactly. The function which throws the error is smbd/fileio.c seek_file and I checked the size of the typedef SMB_OFF_T is 8 bytes as it should be but the pos variable toggles from +2^13-1 to -2^31 as if somewhere in the chain of calls to that procedure it is passed as a int (32 bits) instead of a long (64 bits) on my system. I am currently trying to back-track the call stack at that point which is going slowly, if anyone has a suggestion on how to quickly do that, aside from looking at the code I would appreciate it.
