Max filesize for rsync?

[Jeff Schoby]

How do I build rsync for large file support..I'm going to need > 4GB
files thru rsync.

It basically stops with an error message of "File too large"...I can
re-run rsync later with the -vvv flag and post the results tomorrow.

2GB (4GB?) should always be possible, when built with the appropriate
options for large file support >4GB files are no problem.

Well, it shouldn't... Please define "croaking"? Any diagnostic
messages?
Try running with -vvv
