THROUGHPUT BETWEEN 2 PCs
I have two laptops [Windows 7] each connected on end of 20Mbps pipe. The MTU of the NICs is 1500bytes. Maximum pingable data size end-to-end is only 1472 bytes with DF-bit set. When I initiate a normal windows based file transfer end-to-end the throughput is 20Mbps in a single session which is really good.
However when I took some wireshark logs at the server end I noticed something interesting.
The maximum segment size [MSS] observed for each PDU is 2920 bytes [2*1460]. In fact when I remove the bandwidth capping on the last mile the single session speed increases to very good speeds of 70Mbps.
Observation - 1) DF bit is set in the packets 2) The PC-to-PC maximum pingable datagram size is 1472 with DF bit set 3) The message "TCP segment of a reassembled PDU" is being observed for each & every segment 4) Normal windows file sharing is used 5) Application is "microsoft-ds" port number 445
My question is: How can the MSS segment size be 2*1460 bytes? I feel it should be 1460bytes only. Do share your observations on the same. Attached is a snapshot of the a single packet capture, single the whole file is too big
Hello Netops44,
from the fact that MTU is only 1472 bytes I guess a form of tunneling may point-to-point GRE tunneling is in use of MTU would be 1500 bytes.
the WAN device may override the DF fragment in order to be able to fragment the GRE packet that carries the user packet inside, on the other end of the link the original packet is re-assembled including the DF bit set.
As a result of the scenario described above TCP MSS can be as high as the observed value as TCP is not aware of fragmentation that happens on the external GRE packet.
the DF bit can be cleared on the external GRE packet by using policy based routing with action

KDEConnect file browsing not working between PCs
Hello,
Recently I've noticed that browsing files in KDEConnect doesn't work between PCs.
PC is showed in the list, ping is working, but when I try to browse the files either by button from KDEConnect menu either direcly from Dolphin,
system is trying to connect to another pc, but after few seconds, returns me error:
Could not mount device.
The reported error was:
Could not mount device filesystem
And here is the log of dolphin running on sudo.
I haven't figured out how to run dolphin in logging mode, so I've runned it by sudo and pasted kdeconnect address used by non-sudo dolphin.

About a week ago it was working fine and I haven't been doing anything strange on them.
I've deleted all configs of KDEConnect, purged it totally and installed again, even tried -git version, but the issue still persists.
I can't find any logs about KDEConnect. I'll include them if someone tells me, where they are.
Can someone tell me how to fix this issue,
Thanks in advance,

I own an iPad2 and run my business on Dell PCs and Small Business Server. I use Logmein Hamachi to gain access between PCs. I have downloaded Logmein to my IPad 2 and want to access my PCs. Would appreciate any help with this process.
On the Iphone or Ipad you have 2 choices, both of which do the same thing.
1. Use Safari to log onto Logmein website, where your PCs r listed. Choose which one u want & log onto it.
2. Use Logmein Ignition w 1time purchase fee & it semi automates the process. -

Lightroom
Open Lightroom Preferences. In the panel labeled Presets click on the button labeled 'Show Lightroom Preset Folder...' An OS window will open containing multiple folders. The Lightroom Presets folder should be highlighted. You can copy this entire folder, the subfolders within it or individual templates/presets from the PC to Mac or vice versa
With Photoshop CC it's possible to Sync a sub set of your settings across the Creative Cloud. However, you'll need to set up the CC account. Sync settings can be found under the Photoshop menu on Mac and Edit menu on Windows.
With Photoshop CS6 you'd be best asking the question on Photoshop forum http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop -
Getting objects to move between PCs
After CS 150, I find myself back in the world of Java. I recently learned a neat language called Processing (a.k.a. Proce55ing), and I am one of the coders (and am way rusty to be of much use at this point) for a really cool project.
I'm wondering if I can nag you with some questions on java.net.*. I need to get some objects passed around between 3 PCs. I need to know about latency issues. Basically, we've got Java doing OpenGL graphics on 6 projectors powered by 3 computers. Imagine each PC having a really wide screen... when a autonomous creature gets to the edge of one PC, it needs to continue its thang on the next PC... move fluidly.
I've checked out some Java.net.* sample code on sun's site. Specifically their KnockKnock Server. However, its multithread support is for interacting with clients on a one-on-one basis... not like a chat-room style environment. So, I don't even have any sample code for a ultra-basic Java Chat Room.... nor do I know how to pass anything but a string to the server, or to the client.
There are ways to use my limited knowledge to do what I want to do... just pass a string, and have the server store that into a variable which is accessible by every server thread. Then, create a loop in main that keeps searching through that array of strings to pass them off to the PC... the string would have the coordinate information of the autonomous creature, and create a new one of that object with those Vec3f point. However, latency is a key issue, and it would be easiest if I could just pass an object to the server (in this case: a SimpleVehicle) along with an intended target computer, and then that computer would get that vehicle to add to its array of SimpleVehicles. The important thing is speed, so it might be best to have every computer have a client<->server connection with each other... I get utterly baffled reading the Java Docs. But, I seem to understand code when I see it (I can only reverse engineer). I especially understand the KnockKnock Server and MultiClient code on the Sun's Java Networking Tutorial.
Any pointers to which methods I need to learn (I already realize I'm going to need to downcast the SimpleVehicle object back into a SimpleVehicle after it gets sent). Thanks a million.Ok, try this.
The simplistic application sends colored balls between instances of itself which can be on any machine on your network.
As a ball reaches the left side of the window it is in, it gets sent to the machine on it's left (if any), likewise if it reaches the right side of the window it gets sent to the machine on it's right. If there is no machine on the side the ball is trying to go, it rebounds within the window it is in.
So, a simple test is to run three instances on the same machine, one is regarded as one the left on as on the right and one as in the middle
To start the one on the left:
java Ziniman1 8000 -right localhost:8001
To start the one in the middle:
java Ziniman1 8001 -left localhost:8000 -right localhost:8002
To start the one on the right:
java Ziniman1 8002 -left localhost:8001
Note: You need to start these pretty quickly one after the other or the socket creation will time out. I'll leave that to you to fix ;)
Once the apps are running, move them so they are next to each other, left to right (the port numbers used as the server port are in the JFrame title).
To get create a ball, just click on one of the white panels, use the radio buttons at the bottom to change size/color/direction of the new balls.
Once you've got the hang of the thing, try moving some instances to other machnes.
Enjoy!

Has anyone tried to use labview to measure tcp/ip throughput between 2 computer using labview?
I was wondering is LabVIEW can be used to measure throughput of the ethernet connection between 2 computers. Data in Mbps such as uplink and downlink on the connection.
ThanksI've included a link to an article for determining the maximum TCP/IP transfer rate in LabVIEW. You can download the example that is included in the article. This example VI measures the communication from a real-time target to a host PC, so you'll need modify it for your application. Please let me know if you have anymore questions, thanks!

I have two pcs which are activated for homesharing, but when I buy music from Itunes store, it does not show up on both PCs in the Music library. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for the support.
There are two ways to have music and other purchases from the iTunes Store synced between multiple computers. Make sure all computers are using the same iTunes Store account.
Home Share Sync
Make sure Home Sharing is turned on and working between both computers. Home Sharing is turned on when your can see the name of the other computer in the sidebar of the iTunes window. The icon will look like a house with a musical note on the side. Select the Home Share computer in the sidebar then click on the 'Settings…' button on the bottom right-hand side of the iTunes window. In the 'Home Sharing Settings' dialogue box put a checkmark in the box for each type of media you want to have synced between computers. iTunes needs to be running on both computers for the sync to occur. If iTunes is not running at the time of the purchase, sync will occur the next time iTunes is running and can connect to the other computer.
Automatic Store Downloads
In the iTunes preference pane select Store on the toolbar. Put a checkmark in the box for the the media types you want to have automatically downloaded from the iTunes Store. Whenever purchases occur on one computer iTunes will automatically download the media to all computers and iOS devices sharing the same iTunes Store account. This method only works for Music, App and Book purchases. -
Copy files between pcs - checksum error
Scenario:
- Two PCs (A and B) in a small LAN.
- Computer A runs a NFS and a FTP server. I can transfer file from A to B mounting the nfs exported directories or downloading them via FTP.
- The files can reside in ext3 or xfs partitions, on different drives, in A and they are being copied to B in ext3 or xfs partitions, again on different drives.
- Drives and filesystems are healthy (knock on wood).
I download a given file along with its checksum file (md5 or sfv format), from internet on A: the checksum check using cfv (tried even md5sum) says it's allright.
Then I copy the file on B (via FTP or NFS - it doesn't matter), check it again and I have an error ("bad crc"). Sometimes for the file I download, there's a torrent: if I use the torrent file and check the integrity of the downloaded file (with ktorrent or gtorrentviewer), I find that there's a missing piece.
The above happens random, not always and not with all files.
A really strange thing is that, if I mount A's exported directory in B and if I run the checksum check from B, I also get an error (as said above, if I check the file directly on A, it's good).
I can't remember when this started - in your opinion, where should I look for solving this?I dont really understand the torrent part of the story.
Sorry - I wasn't that much clear and my english doesn't help
A torrent file can be used for an integrity check of the file: not only it reports if the checksum is right or wrong, but - in this latter case - it can tell you that there are missing pieces in the file and how many.
Hmm and it sounds like pc B isnt that healthy
I checked for filesystem sanity in both PCs, and I also run the Seagate diagnostic tool on both of them. The chance that 4 hard disk are failing at the same time in the same PC is negligible. Anyway, I'm open to suggestions here - maybe it's an hardware issue, but I don't think it's related to the hard disks.
what if you try it with an usb stick ??
I'll try copying files to an external drive and to another PC - thanks for the idea
try to check the size of the file you copy if there are both equal.
They aren't - otherwise I won't get that checksum error. The difference is usually small, though - only a few kbytes: it seems to me that the copy process doesn't end properly. -
Hello There,
I have written an Outlook Add-In to add several User Properties to our incoming emails. This add-in will be installed in 100 computers in different states and our Exchange server is hosted in our datacenter in CA.
Everything works great but there is an odd thing happens and that is when one PC changes a UserProperty Value all the other PCs show up that change on their outlook UIs but when I get the MailItem object from the same other PC is
not showing the changes. But if I shutdown outlook on that PC and open it up again the changes will be showing up in the MailItem object. It seems to me that MailItem doesn't refresh but UI does.
Does anyone know how I can refresh the MailItem after its UserProperties has been changed from another pc in a shared account environment.
These are my codes to save a property and show all properties:
Public Sub SaveUserProperty(xName As String, xValue As String)
Dim ns As Outlook.NameSpace = Me.Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Dim oMailItem As Outlook.MailItem = Nothing
Dim oUserProperties As Outlook.UserProperties = Nothing
Dim oUserProperty As Outlook.UserProperty = Nothing
Try
oMailItem = ns.GetItemFromID(curMailId)
oUserProperties = oMailItem.UserProperties
oUserProperty = oUserProperties.Find(xName)
If oUserProperty IsNot Nothing Then
oUserProperty.Value = xValue
End If
oMailItem.Save()
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(String.Format("{0}: {1}{2}", "SaveProperty", vbTab, ex.Message))
Finally
If Not IsNothing(oUserProperty) Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oUserProperty)
oUserProperty = Nothing
End If
If Not IsNothing(oUserProperties) Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oUserProperties)
oUserProperties = Nothing
End If
If Not IsNothing(oMailItem) Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oMailItem)
oMailItem = Nothing
End If
If Not IsNothing(ns) Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(ns)
ns = Nothing
End If
End Try
End Sub
Public Sub ShowUserProperties()
Dim builder As StringBuilder = New StringBuilder()
Dim ns As Outlook.NameSpace = Me.Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Dim oMailItem As Outlook.MailItem = Nothing
Dim oUserProperties As Outlook.UserProperties = Nothing
Dim oUserProperty As Outlook.UserProperty = Nothing
Try
oMailItem = ns.GetItemFromID(curMailId)
oUserProperties = oMailItem.UserProperties
For Each oUserProperty In oUserProperties
builder.AppendFormat("{2}:{0}{3}{1}", vbTab, vbNewLine, oUserProperty.Name, oUserProperty.Value)
Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oUserProperty)
Next
If (builder.Length > 0) Then
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(builder.ToString(), "The UserProperties collection")
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(String.Format("{0}: {1}{2}", "ShowUserProperties", vbTab, ex.Message))
Finally
If Not IsNothing(oUserProperty) Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oUserProperty)
oUserProperty = Nothing
End If
If Not IsNothing(oUserProperties) Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oUserProperties)
oUserProperties = Nothing
End If
If Not IsNothing(oMailItem) Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oMailItem)
oMailItem = Nothing
End If
If Not IsNothing(ns) Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(ns)
ns = Nothing
End If
End Try
End SubOutlook will not see the latest changes downloaded from Exchange (or changed through MAPI bypassing the Outlook Object Model on the local machine) until the MailItem object is completely released and reopened. The explorer list shows the changes since it
is fed off the underlying folder contents table, not the cached MailItem object.
There is nothing you can unless you make sure the MailItem object is released and is never kept referenced fro any prolonged periods of time.

Home Sharing works, but not able to transfer files between PCs.
I have two laptops at home, one is an old one I keep dedicated to my Apple TV 2nd Gen. (so I don't have to have my laptop on, or my wife can use the ATV if I'm at work w/ my laptop, etc.)
Anyway, I sync all my media between both computers so when my laptop is not home, ATV still has full media function (as does my laptop). Used to be able to connect via Home Sharing and there was a drop-down menu with an option at the bottom of the Library to show only those files not in my library. I would use that function to transfer all recently added media to the ATV laptop. Since upgrading to iTunes 10, that dropdown menu is nowhere to be found. Any ideas?
I can still connect and play media through Home Sharing, but if my primary laptop leaves the range of the network, the new media content on it can't be accessed on ATV. Primary laptop is Windows 7, ATV-dedicated lap is on Windows XP.
Was the ability to transfer files through Home Sharing lost between iTunes 9 and 10 or did this feature just get moved somewhere else? If it was lost, how can I revert back to iTunes 9? If nothing else, I can just transfer via an external HD, but was just very convenient and easy through Home Sharing...
Thanks for any input!

Failed to transfer saved ebooks in ADE between PCs (with the same Adobe ID)
I have download and saved ebooks at ADE (with authorized Adobe ID) at my office's pc, however, authorizing the same Adobe ID at my home PC, I failed to find those ebooks I saved at my office pc. Whats wrong?
I don't think the Adobe infrastructure will ever automatically copy ebooks between devices registered with the same ID.
You need to do the copying yourself explicitly.
Accessing a DRM eBook is a two step process.
Download .acsm file from whatever source (vendor, library, ...). That is just a metadata file about the book and the purchase/loan.
Download DRM .epub file (or .pdf if you are unlucky). Typically done with ADE. The server will create a DRM file specific to the registered AdobeID.
You should then be able to copy the .epub file to another device (computer, dedicated eReader or tablet with eReader software) registered with the same AdobeID, and read the .epub there.
~~~
I'm not sure if you can copy the .acsm file and redownload another DRM file for the same purchace or loan on a different machine.
~~~
Usually copying is a standard process using a file manager such as Windows Explorer.
The iPad infrastructure likes to make life hard for the user, so copying to an iPad has to be done indirectly: for example using Dropbox, iTunes or by emailing a file to yourself. -
I want to transfer the Itunes music from one computer that has Itunes installed and running to a second computer that has Itunes installed but contains no music at all yet.
I copied to several DVDs all the files under "C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\My Music\iTunes", it took 4 dvd's to accept close to 16 Gigabytes of music.
When I tried to copy these files to the same folder in the second PC, the PC is unable to "read" the files on the dvd's. It lists the files and then it freezes. Restarting the PC does not help. Is Apple putting something that prevents a second PC from "recognizing" the files from the first PC?.
Can you help me solve this problem?. I do not wish to spend hours adding the same music files to the second PC when I can just transfer them from the first.
The two PCs ARE NOT in a network.
ThanksThen you need to put the music back into iTunes, and from there to your other iPod.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), there's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc. -
Only the communication between PCs domain
Hello, I need to create a rule for that communication is only between computers dominoes. That is, if any other computer on the network that is not the field should not have any communication with the domain computers. How do I make this rule?

As far as I know, there is not step by step guide for the Domain Isolation deployment published. However we can refer the following KB to realize the Domain
Isolation.

Link problem between PCs and Macs
Hello. We have 3 Macs running OSX 10.5.x and Adobe Std CS5, and they share their Illustrator creations, images, etc., on a NAS file server. Recently, I downloaded the CS5.5. trial version for a PC running Windows XP Pro and on the same network with same file access and security. All machines use CIFS to access files.
PC user will create an Illustrator file in one of these shared folders on the NAS and link in images from another shared folder on the NAS and save it. When a Mac user opens the Illustrator file, however, none of the links are valid so the Mac user has to re-link those images and re-save the file. What change(s) do I need to make on the PC-side to stop this problem? Does the PC need to be on CS5, too?Thanks to both of you for your help. We found out that the PC and Mac show the absolute path slightly differently when connecting to our NAS. However, if we create an ai file with linked images on the PC, save it, and then open it in the Mac, even though the links are off we can fix all of them if we simply re-link one image and then "Ignore" the rest of the pop-up error messages. There are less (or no) link issues if the images are in the same folder as the ai file, but that kind of defeats the advantage of linking over embedding. We need to have one central images folder since the same image can be used many times over. Is there any way to force Illustrator to use relative paths instead of absolut paths? For example, if I have a share name "Sales" and three folder within: "Images", "ABC company" and "DEF company", can the ai files I create in ABC company contain links like, "..\Images\image01.eps" instead of something like \\NAS2\Sales\Images\image01.eps? Would be nice if Adobe Illustrator had a preference setting of something like "Default location of ai files" where I can set it to, \\NAS2\Sales\, and then any documents I create would use that setting as a link starting point.

Copying Library data between PCs?
I currently have my Library in iTunes 9.2 on my Vista box. I'm planning on backing up my songs, replacing the HDD and starting fresh with Windows 7. I can always just reimport all of my songs into iTunes 10 on the new one, but is it possible to import the "Date Added", "Last Played", "Most Played" etc as well, like importing the actual Library.itl file as well? I mainly sort my music by the date I imported it and last time I moved my music (from iMac to Vista) I lost all that. I have over 8000 songs now so I'd really like to keep that info if I could.

Simply copy the entire \Music\iTunes\ folder to another drive.
Install Windows 7 then install iTunes.
Copy the iTunes folder back to \Music\ after you install Window 7.
Everything will be as it was.
No need to reimport or do anything else.
