Did you find it in Craig's old blog? If so, you'll have seen that this is an undocmumented experimental parameter. Sun Ray makes no guarantees about what might happen if you play with it. > # dhtadm -P |grep NewTBW > SunRay-192.168.8.0 Macro > :Include=SunRay:AuthSrvr=192.168.8.10:NewTBW=200000: > > Does this mean I can force it to any value I want? You can force it to any value above 64000. I'm not sure what happens if you force it to a value greater than the Ethernet bitrate. > At this point the auto bandwidth feature is turned > off.. right? No. NewtBW puts an upper bound on the bandwidth that the Sun Ray will advertise to a server. The server and Sun Ray might agree to use less than that upper bound. > What is the highest I can force it on a > 10/100Mbps Ethernet connection? 10000000/100000000, I guess. If the Sun Ray accepts values higher than that then packet loss under load would be guaranteed and that loss would cause the bandwidth to be throttled down anyway. > We having some issues were the initial graphic display > on the SR170 has pixel issues.

Any ideas? Are these Sun Rays on a VPN, VLAN, or working across some other network that causes the MTU between server and Sun Ray to be smaller than the usual Ethernet MTU? The problem you're describing sounds more like packet loss due to fragmentation than a bandwidth issue. The Sun Ray should recover from lost packets but it won't necessarily recover from fragmentation. The fix for fragmentation loss is to configure DHCP to tell the Sun Ray to use a smaller MTU.
