I am interested in knowing whether users might not be happier backing their files up to a dedicated mac server than to our Unix machines via the Fastpath - performance for large file transfers to Unix is frustratingly slow - even when the net is not loaded. _______________________________________________________________________________ Dan Peterka S-CUBED 3398 Carmel Mtn Rd. dan@scubed.scubed.com (619) 587-8338 San Diego, CA 92121 _______________________________________________________________________________
