I first decided to run a benchmark based on a comment that some of the 10/100 cards are really 10. The main difference is that the non-cardbus PCMCIA cards are 16 bit cards and the cardbus cards are 32 bit. I used the ttcp utility to perform my benchmarks. The benchmarks were all done using Lin

Huh. Spurred by this message, I did a little testing of my own.

Hi John!
I'm not familar with the syslog output you have, but I assume the "(113)" is
a port number on the remote system - that's likely the identd process, which
is frequently used to either:
1) Verify the identity of a mail sender.

We lost access to a server at work; unfortuna
In the past, I've had to do this for turnkey servers that would occasionally,
but undesirably run out of file handles during their busiest time. Since
