How to overcome the 2GB Ftp limit in redhat 7.2 running kernel 2.4.7-10


I am trying to transfer a file a little over 2Gb with my redhat 7.2 machine with a limited package set using the stock ftp client it gives me a error message
"local : file.tar remote : file.tar
local : file.tar : File too large "
I have checked the filesize limit with ulimit and it is set to unlimited if I take the box with the limited package set and install all the packages for 7.2 the problem goes away so my question is does anybody know what packages have to be installed to overcome this limitation I am using a ext3 fs on a western digital 80 GB hd the packages I install are
