Could you test raw performance? Something like running `nc -l -u -p 1666 >/dev/null` on one machine and `dd if=/dev/zero bs=64k | nc -u -p 1666` on the other, then looking with `iptraf` how much traffic you´re getting across. cheers, &rw -- -- Russell Foster: "Tell me $DEITY what have I done to deserve this?" -- David P.
