You don't need large files support if you split the export into multiplel
files.  This is available in 8i as the FILESIZE parameter.  For example,
"FILESIZE=1000M".  Try "exp help=Y" for details.

Good question, now that you ask, I don't remember, it was so long ago
that I had to remember anything about 2.2.x and I've only had to deal
with 2.4.x that now I don't know if 2.2 had this feature already. If
2.2.x had it at all, the 2.2.19 based update we have will definitely do
it, if not you'll need 2.4.x.

http://www.suse.com/oracle/
Section "Valuable Information" at the top

It's not like there are a hundred pages or so, it's just two links (one
small page only behind each of them; "Ent. Server" and "Certification")
that wold be of any interest, since "software list", "mailing list" or
"how to buy" don't sound very promising for this specific question I'd
say...
