Has anybody worked that out? 

I am using an RT/PC running AIX and NFS as a file server for a VAXstation
running Ultrix. In addition to the VERY ENNOYING fact that AIX only
supports file names up to 14 characters long, the simple command:
 "mv vax:file1 rt-pc:file2"
refuses to mv files larger than 4MB, while
 "rcp vax:file1 rt-pc:file2"
does work properly up to my (as a user) file size limit.

I guess that there is a system wide limit on file sizes specified
somewhere, but I do not know where nor how to change it.
Any help will be appreciated.
