To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org We are trying to construct a file that is larger than the basic 2GB allowed by lseek(). I am sure I have seen some discussion on this somewhere but I've forgotten where... So these questions. 1. Does FreeBSD support file sizes greater than 2GB? 2. If so is there another way (other than lseek()) to address them? 3. If not, will multiple calls to lseek() with whence = SEEK_CUR work or will the internal pointer wrap?
