Precision is everything in computing. This post is so vague that it defies belief when it presumably comes from a Systems Administrator with a real problem.

Please post the precise versions of both Operating Systems.
Please state all filesystem settings. How were they created and with what parameters?
Please provide exact directory listings of any files involved.
Please post precise commands typed or provide crontab details.
Please state any error messages precisely.
Please provide detail of an example copy which works.
Please post the output from unix command "ulimit -a" for the user concerned. Are you "root"?


I have seen many examples of problems with files above 2Gb but never with 4 Gb. Does it work for say 3 Gb?
