The ext2 filesystem can be at least 2 terabytes, with files up to at least 2 
gigabytes. Other filesystems Linux support have lower limits.

Don't know, sorry.

There is the NET-2-HOWTO, but don't forget the Network Administrators' Guide.
I think O'Reilly & Associates has a book on NFS, which is probably good
(ORA books tend to be better than average, even if not great).

Hah! Linux 0.01 can only mount a filesystem of 64 megabytes!
