Dave,
In looking in the network area of system preferences, I don't see
anything like MIke is looking for to get the maximum speed out of the
connection I have here. I'm connecting wirelessly with my airport
card on the Mac here.

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.

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.
