2GB limit?

[Gene Harris]

There is a 2GB limit on file sizes under NFS2.  I wonder if the original
author is thinking of this limit?  I have just in the last two weeks,
completed an 8.4GB database in DB2 under RedHat 6.1 with no problems, so I
know, at least for RedHat 6.1 that the limit is not 2GB.
