Yes. Samba can handle files that are larger than 2GB on Linux kernels 2.4 and
later. Please do NOT confuse smbfs with Samba. smbfs is a Linux kernel driver
that is NOT part of Samba. smbfs is a superceded technology and has been
replaced with CIFSFS which supports large files also, however, I would refer
you to the maintainers of CIFSFS for specific details pertaining to that
project.
