Subject: 64bit filesize limit on a 32bit linux

Hi,

# ulimit -f `echo 2^22-1|bc`;ulimit -f
4194303
# ulimit -f `echo 2^22|bc`;ulimit -f
unlimited
# uname -r
2.6.11-1.1290_FC4

I need to limit users to 5GB per file instead of 4GB. Do I need any
kernel patches or can it somehow be done in user space?

Thanks

Igor
