http://bugzilla.wpkg.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91 --- Comment #6 from Tomasz Chmielewski <mangoo at wpkg.org> 2007-12-07 11:36:46 --- The article on Blogspot uses ICMP ping to detect those values. I think it is blocked in the default Windows 2003 installation? Of course, most setups will not block it, but I bet some will do. So to make it really universal, we would have to depend on that "TCP ping". IMO depending on "Ping time threshold (ms)" can be also unreliable to detect slow links. A domain server or a file server is not always a full-blown PC - I normally use such devices as a domain controller / file server: http://blog.wpkg.org/2007/09/20/the-smallest-windows-domain-controller/ Just put some load to it (i.e., schedule a print job to a non-PostScript printer, copy files in a couple of directions) and you can have the feeling of latency. So, the only reliable way is to download a file, and see how fast it was I guess? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.wpkg.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- just about anything Open Source. http://sourceforge.net/services/buy/index.php ------------------------------------------------------- Easy Software Deployment >> http://wpkg.org _______________________________________________ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users at lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users |
