Hi

I've run into a problem on an OLD legacy box that is annoying rather than a show
stopper. A user has moved a file onto this box using SAMBA however the file is
large and i'm encountering issues.

The file is too big to be deleted and it does not show up in SAMBA also. eg

$ ls vm.tar.gz
ls: vm.tar.gz: Value too large for defined data type

How can i delete this file?

thanks
