I'm not sure if this has anything to do with MAXDSIZ (resource limits.) In any case, the manpage for mmap(2) is pretty clear about why there is a 2GB limit: * 32-bit limit in the VM system * filesystem offset limitations If anyone knows a trick, I'd like to know, but AFAIK this isn't possible without major system overhaul. -Paul.
