Slow file transfer between 2 computers

videobruce

If I transfer files from box A to box B using box A as the controlling terminal all is fine, BUT if I transfer the SAME files from the same location to the same location using box B as the controlling terminal the transfer is either very, very slow or dies altogether.

This will be sort of a N00B question, hence the name.

Accessing the News Archive

nwpsys

Really like the new frontpage layout with the grouping by subject within in each day. Are there any plans to make the News Archive more user friendly ? It would be nice on a Monday morning to be able to look at previous news on a day by day basis, rather than a large list of headlines grouped by month ? Just a thought.

Wilhelmus

I noticed that on one thread (Machine Check: Regs in event viewer on boot :: ), the right bar (where the Main Menu, User, Sponsor, Site Search, Google Ad Links, News Feeds, Users Online and Links are located) is totally black.

Adobe buys Macromedia

pmistry

Never saw this coming, and with that Adobe now has a huge market share in web publishing, desktop design, and graphics. Adding products like Dreamweaver, Flash, and ColdFusion, to a list that includes PhotoShop, Acrobat and Premiere, wow.

Database Search Improvemewnt

SyntheToonz

The compatibilty database search would be much more useful if it permitted viewing/searching by manufacturer. Often I know who makes a device, but if it is entered in the database with a different name it can be hard to find.
