flash archives are reasonably portable if the hardware is close enough but we've done this and found it highly inconventiant. In particular, a number of additional apps (inlcuding Sun's SRS NetConnect for example) store the hostname in their config during install so changing it later create contradictions.
However, you should be able to create flars larger than 4gb using the default options. Are you sure that's what it stopping you?

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN
mail::srs::daemon
Mail::SRS::Daemon(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mail::SRS::Daemon(3pm)
NAME
Mail::SRS::Daemon - modular daemon for Mail::SRS
SYNOPSIS
my $daemon = new Mail::SRS::Daemon( SecretFile => $secretfile, Separator => $separator, ); $daemon->run();
DESCRIPTION
The SRS daemon listens on a socket for SRS address transformation requests. It transforms the addresses and returns the new addresses on
the socket.
It may be invoked from exim using ${readsocket ...}, and probably from other MTAs as well. See http://www.anarres.org/projects/srs/ for
examples.
METHODS
$daemon = new Mail::SRS::Daemon(...)
Construct a new Mail::SRS object and return it. All parameters which are valid for Mail::SRS are also valid for Mail::SRS::Daemon and will
be passed to the constructor of Mail::SRS verbatim. The exception to this rule is the Secret parameter, which will be promoted to a list
and will have all secrets from SecretFile included. New parameters are documented here. See Mail::SRS for the rest.
SecretFile => $string
A file to read for secrets. Secrets are specified once per line. The first specified secret is used for encoding. Secrets are written
one per line. Blank lines and lines starting with a # are ignored. If Secret is not given, then the secret file must be nonempty.
Secret will specify a primary secret and override SecretFile if both are specified. However, secrets read from SecretFile still be used
for decoding if both are specified.
Socket => $socket
An instance of IO::Socket, presumed to be a listening socket. This may be provided in order to use a preexisting socket, rather than
have Mail::SRS::Daemon construct a new socket.
$daemon->run()
Run the daemon. This method will never return. Errors and exceptions are caught, and error messages are returned down the socket.
EXPORTS
Given :all, this module exports the following variables.
$SRSSOCKET
The filename of the default socket created by Mail::SRS::Daemon.
PROTOCOL
The daemon waits for a single line of text from the client, and will respond with a single line. The lines are all of the form "COMMAND
args...". Currently, two commands are supported: forward and reverse.
A forward request looks like:
FORWARD sender@source.com alias@forwarder.com
A reverse request looks like:
REVERSE srs0+HHH=TT=domain=local-part@forwarder.com
In either case, the daemon will respond with either a translated address, or a line starting "ERROR ", followed by a message.
TODO
Add more daemon-related options, such as path to socket, or inet socket address.
