I should have mentioned that Firefox (and, I assume, SeaMonkey) will only download from FTP sites (and it does handle files greater than 2 GB), without some sort of add on to do uploading.

Andi B.:
netdrive ftp plugin support >2GB too. I use it as ftp client in conjunction with LarsenCommander but can't remember if I ever tested it with >5GB. Server from Peter Moylan.

Edit: just tested with a 19GB file. Worked ok.

Seamonkey still shows having upload file under File - Upload File.

Thank you everyone for your helpful ideas, several of which have been noted down for possible future use.  I went the multi hop route and the VMs are now up and running in their new server.

Now another question.

During the course of trying various things I loaded the latest OS/2 version of firefox on the server and all went well.  That is until I found a picture of a circuit board I was interested in and clicked MB2 to bring up the save image menu.  On clicking ok firefox vanished - it did save the image though.  I tried it several times with different images all giving the same results.  I also get the same thing happening on other multi core processor boxes so the question is, is firefox SMP safe?

I am pretty sure that it is supposed to be SMP safe. I don't see the problem that you describe, although FF does have a few other, similar, problems (at least one is probably related to FLASH). I do have the latest ACPI installed (acpi-3.22.02.exe), along with the SMP updates for various things that were released with the recent ACPI updates (but have nothing to do with ACPI directly). Perhaps you need them?
