I have noticed a 2GB limit on Samba (when trying to image a drive over samba to 
a linux box running the 2.4 kernel).  Or at least that is what I attribute the 
problem to.  Although you may also have linux file limit issues with RH 6.2. 
6.2 probably uses the 2.2 kernel which may also have a 2GB file size limit. 
That is unless you have a different kernel.
