Hi Mike, As I understand it, there isn't much you can do with what is in the activity monitor. There is a way to flip it to show different views but no way that I know of to configure it like services in windows.
The exciting news is that if you look in network, there are several tabs for your service and one is mtu. There are other things too that you can adjust, turn on and off. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Arrigo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS Xby theblind" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, May 17, 2008 5:37 PM Subject: a couple mac OSX questions Hi all. I had a couple questions about leopard itself. First, are there any settings that allow you to control the packet size when using the internet, things such as mtu, etc? Or does the mac automatically adjust this? I wanted to make sure I was getting the best transfer rates with my high speed connection. Also, I was looking in the activity monitor at the different processes running, does the mac have something to similar to services, or are the 12 or so processes that were displayed part of the operating system itself? Thanks.
