I have a small LAN in my home. I need some advice on tuning it. I've started working on a project wherein I move large files (>3GB) between two Debian boxes. This is a slow process. I would like to be sure that it goes as fast as is reasonable. I think all my LAN cards are claimed by their makers to be 10/100, but for some this might be marketing hype. All my cables are 'CAT5'. So, some questions:
How do I determine whether my lan is passing data at 10 or 100 MHz? If I find it is 10MHz, what can I do to find which hardware needs upgrading to make it work at 100MHz? Are there software diagnostic tools that would help me with this? Package names? -- Paul E Condon [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
