Alan, Thank you VERY MUCH for this piece of information - as we have ALSO had client problems with our systems - and they tend to blame us. Some of the problems can be so bad - that our clients get ChargeBacks from their Trading Partners.
I'm curious to know - however - whether setting that switch on may potentially slow down a system due to it writing to the Log? If not - we could potentially use this technique here at the co. where I work! TIA, -K- -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alan Bourke Sent: Friday, March 12, 2010 5:45 AM Just thought I would share, apologies if you're all now saying "yesterday called Alan, it wants its news back" ... A lot of us will have had ding-dongs with hardware suppliers and IT departments where our networked VFP apps have crashing/corruption problems caused by network disconnects - yet the blame always falls on the app. I noticed recently that Intel NICs have a Log Link State Event setting which if enabled will log changes to the network state in the Windows system log. You can then potentially point at that log and say 'a disconnect happened here, and you reported a crash stright after'. This has recently gotten us a cheque that a customer had been holding onto for over a year because of crashing issues. -- Alan Bourke alanpbourke (at) fastmail (dot) fm _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/289ea162f5642645b5cf64d624c66a14071a1...@us-ny-mail-002.waitex.net ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
