Sadly, I would be limited by the internet connection on INN (Only on a 1.5 Mb/s SDSL link). Might see if I can do the NFS thing. I know suns have/had a set of commands which would essentiall push garbage data as fast and much as possible between two hosts. We used to use it at @Home to test particularly troublesome links when they were fixed. Something in FreeBSD like this would be nice. Jamie > > Yours, > J.A.
