file size limit exeeded for NFS mounted directory

Hi all,
I need to find out the cause of my problem.
I have configured NFS, and when I copy the files from client system to the mounted folder, I get the error "file size limit exceeded" when a file exceeds 2 Gigs.
How can I increase the limit for NFS the ulimit file is set to unlimited
Thanks

NFS is not a real filesystem. File size limits on it depends on the limits of filesystem on fileserver (I think ext2 in your case). If you need exeed this limits you need install some modern flesystem on your fileserver.
