Do you have an entry for the hipersocket device in /etc/sysconfig/network/routes? For example: 192.168.252.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 hsi1 default 137.70.100.3 0.0.0.0 eth0 James Melin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: >I've done some testing..... and I don't see a speed improvement for FTP of >a large file via FTP to a hipersocket address vs a GBE ethernet connection. > >I did an ftp to the IP address of a Linux guest, and then repeated the send >of that file to the same guest via the hipersocket defined for it.
