You need to be able to create the file on the destination system. There may be a file size limit there which is causing a problem. In my last job we had a Solaris based ftp server. We had to upgrade it to Solaris 2.6 to handle files greater than 2 GB.

Also keep in mind that some filesystems specifically need to be created with or mounted with largefile support. Otherwise any file larger than 2GB is going to give you trouble.

scp will be a better option to transfer files from a unix to another unix system
 ftp should be disabled, its a good practice.

Yes Madhan, I agree. SFTP is better for file transfers because unlike scp it can hold a continuous connection and create links.
