But I 'll bet several thousand small files which always takes long than a few huge files totaling the same size. My guess is xcopy is better since it's not using clipboard to do cut & paste. Anthony Q. Martin wrote: > ok..92 GBbut surely others here have even bigger loads... > > "Anth

Right off hand I would say that another nic in the computer would be able to share to a switch and the computer would be the firewall, sort of old fashioned but it would work. Mark From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Harvey Best Sent: Saturday, December 30, 2006 3
