Import file > 3gb possible?

 Is it possible to import a large file greater than 3 gigabytes to a tomcat web server?   I am running tomcat 4.1 on debian with  Tomcat/Apache JK2 Connector .  I upload a file using multipart/form data on http Post request to servlet.  I have successfully uploaded a file that was just under 2 gb, but am getting "page cannot be displayed" error when I try to upload a file which is 3.1gb.   Is there a limit of  2gb on the size of a POST message in apache2?       There is a parameter LimitRequestBody that can be configured in conf.http in apache2 to limit the size of the post message.  The value of this parameter can be any number from 0 to 2gb.    It is not configured so it is defaulting to 0 which is unlimited.   Does "unlimited" mean their is a max size of 2gb?   Is there a way to POST a messeg > 2gb so a file greater than 2gb can be uploaded from the desktop to the webserver? 

I have searched on the web and still do not understand if this can be done?

Thanks for your input,
Terry
