Large file support works only partially with NFSv3 with the Beowulf- 
kernel-2.2.19-13.beo. I can write a file > 2GB over NFS, but I can only read 
the first 2 GB of the file over NFS. Also ls shows the wrong file size in NFS 
directories
local:
waltnepe at ce05sl14 /home/waltnepe > ls -lh /scr/ce05sl14/scr1/waltnepe/
-rwxr-x---    1 waltnepe admin        2.1G Nov 13 10:51 Bonnie.12536
NFS:
waltnepe at ce05sl16 /home/waltnepe > ls -lh /scr/ce05sl14/scr1/waltnepe/
-rwxr-x---    1 waltnepe admin        2.0G Nov 13 10:51 Bonnie.12536
I checked this with Linux and Irix NFS servers.
