Re: TGZ file with more than 2GB on RHEL inaccessible
How do you copy the file from the source to the target system? Are both Systems Red Hat AS 4 Update 3?

"The beta version 1.3.3 already includes a sufficient patch; use this version if you have to handle files larger than 2 GB."

Re: TGZ file with more than 2GB on RHEL inaccessible
i.e.
gzip -cd < file.tgz | tar -tvf -
Do this on the source server before the copy, then again after you've copied it to ensure that the copy process it's self isn't breaking the file.
'md5sum' is your friend for that too.
All that being said, tar/gzip that comes with RHEL4 is quite capable of doing tar/gz files greater than 5GB. I double-checked this on an ES4 box fully patched (tar-1.14-12/gzip-1.3.3-16), and it didn't even bat an eyelid.
