How large is YOUR file?

My limit imposed by IT or One-drive, I'm not sure which, is 16GB for a single file.

never mind i think its easier to use pipe command to let OS split the file

# split -d -b 200M httpd.log log

@ballardw it seems the limit on our system is some where between 2 and 4 MB.( my file is 4.8 MB)

I understand the limit is imposed by IT but it isnt easy to convince them the just up the limit. Also after several reads i came across some thing that said it is intentionally kept low to prevent hackers from bringing down server by bombarding it with huge files. (not sure how much of it is true)
