Hi, Les,
May I ask you to forward this to the list? I know I got one email from Karanbir after he modded me so that I couldn't post to the list... but in the last week, I've tried emailing Johnny, and I also sent one to Karanbir, figuring that if he was moderating me, I'd send a post to him to moderate, and got a response from neither... and I'm suspecting that any email I send to *any* address at centos.org goes to /dev/null, and he seems to have forgotten me altogether.
Anyway, I'm rsyncing directories over the net, from a 6.5 box to a 6.5 box, and it's going *very* slowly, hours for < 100G. Trying to see if there was a network issue, I tried ethtool on the older box that I'm pulling from, and the relevant lines that surprised me are these: Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes Speed: Unknown! Duplex: Unknown! (255) Port: Twisted Pair PHYAD: 1 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on
Note it's a tg3 driver.
