Differing File Sizes & GPG Symmetric Decryption Failure After ~4G

[Packard, Matthew]

David / Everyone,

    Thanks for info - sad to see that I can't recover the file, but, oh 
well. Is there another way to handle a large (>4G) file in the future 
within GPG? Or should I just split each large file into ~3.5G files and 
then GPG them?

Thanks in advance,
Matthew Packard
