netperf was recommended to me as a basic tool for checking network performance, a search through the archives led me to netpipe-tcp which fails uniformly. Per suggestions in the man pages, I run the following:
remote host: # ./NPtcp -r Resetting connection after every trial Send and receive buffers are 16384 and 87380 bytes (A bug in Linux doubles the requested buffer sizes) local host: # NPtcp -h 192.168.1.33 Send and receive buffers are 16384 and 87380 bytes (A bug in Linux doubles the requested buffer sizes) Now starting the main loop 0: 1 bytes 4999 times --> NetPIPE: error reading synchronization string: Connection reset by peer The man pages are out of date (several documented options contradict the binary's useage statement) but nothing I've found on the net seems to indicate problems of this nature. Suggestions? TIA, PM -- Paul Mackinney [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
