Hi, I have one more question.
My perl script on one Mac in my office by ssh connects to another Mac (let me name it M2) in a very far away place, With the network speed is only about 20k/s or even slower. Then, the perl script mounts another Mac(M3) to that Mac (M2). M2 and M3 are local to each other, that means the network speed between them is very fast. Then, the perl script copies some files from M2 to M3 through commands(cp) on the ssh shell. Lets say, it is 'cp /Volumes/M2/archive.txt /Volumes/M3/archive.txt '. My question is : does the file data goes through the network between M2 and my perl script's machine here? Or they just go through their (M2,M3) local network? I could test the timing myself, but I still won't understand how it work behind. Ted Zeng
