I'm seeking a little advice on a small in-house project. We are installing a
machine in house that will run FTP and iPerf as a means for doing some
simple bandwidth testing between a couple of different endpoints. The box
itself is a 1G AMD with 1GB of DDR RAM and an ATA/66 hard drive. Due to the
concerns of the drive subsystem not being fast enough to dish out the test
files over a 100MB LAN I've been asked to use a ramdrive. Mgmt does not care
what we in IT use for the project so its going to be an OBSD box. The
problem I am faced with is how to implement MFS for a predefined user and
their associated /home/username directory. A script or a user will login to
the test machine and transfer a series of files that are a pre-determined
size. Any thoughts, comments, suggestions or criticisms would be helpful.
