To find large files in linux you can use the find command.
As an example you can find all files that are close to 1GB or over by issuing the command:
find . -type f -size +1000000
The above command will list all files larger than 1GB recursively from the current working directory.

If you are here you have probably seen this error “530 Login incorrect”
In order to fix this problem you need to ensure that the shell being used for the user in question is in the file /etc/shell.
# /etc/shells: valid login shells
/bin/csh
/bin/sh
/usr/bin/es
/usr/bin/ksh
/bin/ksh
/usr/bin/rc
/usr/bin/tcsh
/bin/tcsh
/usr/bin/esh
/bin/dash
/bin/bash
/bin/rbash
/usr/bin/screen
Any shell that is in this file will allow the user to connect.
