On this thread a while back there was some discussion about ftp clients 
for windows that were able to deal with > 2Gb files --- What about a linux 
client?  Everything I try gets really freeked out with this large filesize.

Either they don't work at all, or download the first 2 Gb.  I was able to
convince curl to get about 4G -2 bytes of the file, but I couldn't get it
to get the last 80Mb of the file.  These programs that store filesize in
a 32 bit long int just don't make it.  Are there any linux (redhat 7, 8, 9, or
FC 1) clients that can actually deal with these large filesizes besides
bittorrant.

thanks,
steve
