I hope I don't sound like a heretic, but I would consider another solution like scp or sftp. The reason for the suggestion... web servers serve web pages. They are not file transfer agents. Use the right tool for the job. And I am happy to concede web servers do a fine job with small files, like 4KB or 4MB. But the limit is in place to protect the web server and keep it on track with its primary mission of serving content, not receiving it.
