dd a 450GB LUN

hi
I have to transfer via network a dd of a 450GB SAN LUN from a redhat 2.1. How can I do it ?
I tried via SAMBA and NFS but both they have a file limit to 2GB.

Thank you

Claudio

Both Samba and or NFS can handle this with LFS (Large FileSystem Support). The other option would be to just use rsync.
