I had many issues with parallels networking, and used bridged, and have now always used bridged, without issue.

Hi all-

I wrote a couple weeks ago about a weird phenomenon with file corruption and I had it happen again today. I've finally figured out the issue, and the answer is quite a surprise.

There was nothing wrong with the files, even after the WIndows crash within Parallels on my MacBook Pro. The problem appeared only in the files once I transferred them via FTP. So I updated my copy of WS-FTP and reinstalled. No luck. Then I had a hunch. I was working in Starbucks yesterday, making use of the WiFi hotspot. In order to have both the Mac and Windows apps online at the same time you need to use Shared Networking so that Windows traffic comes and goes as if it were from the host OS. If you use Bridged Networking (the default) it appears as two machines getting online, so you would have to pay twice, or it just doesn't work. So I was still set to Shared Networking. I shut down Parallels and switched the VM back to Bridged Networking and uploaded the file again. No problems at all.

When I did compare the files by downloading a problem file from the server I was finding a lower case letter b appended on the last line of the file outside the </TAF> tag. But I never would have seen it looking at the files on my machine prior to uploading as it was only during the process of uploading that the file was being corrupted.

Hopefully this won't happen with the next version of Parallels - I haven't tried the beta yet.

Cheers all, and happy holidays

Jason
