FTP problem between 2 linux servers

[breaz25]

I have two RH AS 2.1 servers (identical). They have ext3 filesystems. I am running kernel-enterprise-2.4.9-e.27 and have plenty of space. When I try to ftp files over 2.1GB I
local: eaistg.oct22.tar.gz: File too large

I have used sftp and it works. I can also ftp this file to diffent unix platforms with out any problems. It seems to be an ftp client problem. Any ideas??

try:
#ulimit -a

check the value of file "size (blocks)"

then adjust the size to any number you want using:
#ulimit -f size ini kBytes

-anand

ulimit is set to unlimited. Any other ideas?

core file size (blocks) 0
data seg size (kbytes) unlimited
file size (blocks) unlimited
max locked memory (kbytes) unlimited
max memory size (kbytes) unlimited
open files 1024
pipe size (512 bytes) 8
stack size (kbytes) 8192
cpu time (seconds) unlimited
max user processes 65536
virtual memory (kbytes) unlimited

Install a better FTP server. Maybe ProFTP?

Cheers

Are those two machine has same ulimit output like above?
Otherwise, try to install another FTP Client.
