    Yes, you can put limit. It depends on the filesystem block size limit specified.

    Code:
    ext2/ext3 with 1 KB block size 16448MiB
    ext2/3 with 2 KiB blocksize 256 GiB
    Userlevel upload size limit can be specified from /etc/security/limits.conf file.

    You will find user specific limits in this file. Below is one example:

    Code:
    Janak    hard  fsize  1024000
    Set new parameter here to increase the file size limit for particular user.

    Note: You should have a root access of server to perform above action.

    How could I do that for the 200-some accounts on my server?

    It depends upon the package you have assigned to the users. If the user disk space exceeds the package limit then they cannot upload the files.
