Well, I take that back, its not "full" gigE speed, but with our original rsync scripts I've seen sustained speeds up to 95 MB/s from all over campus. Now since I've switched to BackupPC for deduplication, I'm seeing 1-5 MB/s on the same servers. -- Jeremy Mann jer...@biochem.uthscsa.edu University of Texas Health Science Center Bioinformatics Core Facility http://www.bioinformatics.uthscsa.edu Phone: (210) 567-2672 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
