During the time of transfer file between two linux machines, if you get this error - its seems like 2 GB File size limited - The error show something like this :

"File size limit exceeded"

To resolve this issue on Linux first Make sure you are using the Samba Version 3.0+

Your server need to support LFS (Large File System).

Try this command.

smbmount //remoteserver/backup /mnt/backup -o username=admin,lfs

Also check

ulimit -a

and the result of the file size must of "file size (blocks, -f) unlimited"

If you see like this, then :

$ ulimit -a core file size (blocks, -c) 0 data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size (blocks, -f) max locked memory (kbytes, -l) unlimited max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited open files (-n) 1024 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8 stack size (kbytes, -s) 10240 cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) 4089 virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
edit your /etc/security/limits.conf and make it unlimited and the result should be

$ ulimit -a core file size (blocks, -c) 0 data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size (blocks, -f) unlimited max locked memory (kbytes, -l) unlimited max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited open files (-n) 1024 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8 stack size (kbytes, -s) 10240 cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) 4089 virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
Hope this information will be useful to resolve this issue.

ext3 單檔最大可到 2TB (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_systems)，所以不會只到 2GB 就不能存。請先確定下面兩件事：

1. 你是否使用 Samba 3.0 版以上？
2. 確定你的 Linux 沒有限定單檔最大 size (請下 ulimit -f 命令看看)

linux 專門放大檔的磁區格式？上面那個表你查查看，linux 檔案系統應該都有到 TB 級，你需要單檔可以多大呢？

小心檔案會損毀, 還是先做好備份好
