Hi,
I forgot to provide the url of our site. It is http://ftp.ncnu.edu.tw/ (running CentOS and lighttpd). Maybe someone wants to see a demo site.

Hi, Apache 2.2.2 has been released. Maybe someone can pack this version for mirror site administrators? This version supports the "Large File Support" feature to handle files larger than 2GB. (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/new_features_2_2.html)
In order to provide uses to download DVD-iso files, we use lighttpd (http://www.lighttpd.net/) as the HTTP server. It has "Large File Support " support. If your site is based on CentOS, you can get the lighttpd package through DAG repository (http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/).

Maybe i'm saying something stupid, but maybe a thttpd sitting on a non-standard port with a mod_rewrite rule in apache would do the trick ?
Yes, you are right, I just want to know if anyone was not thinking about recompiling the apache wth largefile support - that will be the best solution for me as admin ( = no additional work necessary). If not, I will go the second way - the lightweight web server and redirection.
rebuilding apache with the largefile support breaks the api - so you need to then rebuild everything down the line that needs or might need or uses apache too - php, mod_python, mod_dav_svn mod_perl, mod_ssl and their dep chains.....
so, i am not sure if thats something i'd recommend or even try to do for myself.
