Can you give me a hint where to go from here. Try connecting the 2 systems with only a 'cross-over cable' run the applications and make measurements. If this results in an increase in the bandwidth in either direction, you may want to put systems back on the hub, and have a third system run ethereal. Look at your data traffic and see if anythingelse is using the bandwidth from either of these 2 system or what else is plug into the hub/switch. Is the hub a 10Mbps only hub/switch, check that. On 10 Mbps ethernet hubs,you can never reach the full 10 Mbps, in fact with many systems chattering,the practical throughput is marginally around 33%. If when you are on the cross over cable and you get similar poor results,then the problem may be in the ethernet driver code, kernel, irq settings or some other low level part of the kernel/modules, especially if you get the same skewed results with several different applications moving data between the systems. But, if when you move data between these 2 isolated system, and get different bandwidth performance semantics, then the problem is most likely between the applications or a bottleneck in the application code (poor data structure for example). Make sure you computers are not resource limited, thus blocking the processthat you are running to move the data. Top and ntop are just a few toolsto help track down these sort of issues.

Re: [gentoo-user] mozilla usage monitoring
Mark I went about it another way. I installed ipcop as my router/gateway and an ipcop extra called cop+. It does great filtering - stopping much bad stuff using dansguardian.

She can hang out here on her PC and see that he's using mozilla from something simple like 'top', but whe wants to be able to monitor where he goes and when he goes there. I know that big companies do this sort of thing, possibly through their DNS servers, etc., but we don't run DNS here right now. How can she do this?

[gentoo-user] vmware 2.6.13-ck6 ipaq won't sync
After upgrading from 2.6.11-ck8 to the 2.6.13-ck6, and selecting the usb comparable, and in fact I have run kdiff3 on teh .config files from both kernels and don't really find any differences that should effect this. Symptom: VMWare workstation and activesync will not sync with my pocketPC if I am running the 2.6.1113 kernel, still works fine with teh 2.6.11. The best info I can find so far is this in dmesg, that did not appear in teh 2.6.11 kernel: usb 4-6.4: usbfs: interface 0 claimed by usbfs while 'vmware-vmx' sets config #1 Any ideas??

The only reason above worked was because I had edited -All to +All in main `Directory' entry. Once the main directory entry was set to block all directories as intended it is then necessary to specify exactly which dir at what depth you want to change. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
