    Hello -

    We're running kernel 2.6.6 and having issues with file size limits
    (on some of our systems, the users are not able to create files
    larger than 2G .. yes, we have very large files). I've looked and
    looked but can't see where this is set (and I've already checked
    ulimit but those values are set at unlimited).

    My thought is that I need to set something in /etc/sysctl.conf, but
    I can't find anything that documents all of the possible entries that
    one can make. Is there something?

    Any help would be appreciated,
    Debbie
