How to create file with some required size

In my current project i want to move files from one FTP server to another. For this i have to create a file with size of 2 gb or more.

I found this FSUTIL utility from windows XP

To create a file with some size. Run the below command.

c:\> fsutil file createnew Sample.txt 2147483648

The above command will get you a file named Sample.txt of size 2GB.

FSUTIL has lot of other features aswell. Check it out.
