I-net's slowness is NOT (I repeat, NOT) a problem on the server side!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I-net for windows version 5.01.WC1 has a CONFIRMED bug in it. It seems that the wonderfull programers at Informix left the debugging option for FTP on when they went from developement to production. There are two fixes: 1) in your system.ini file create a [debug] section and in it place the line 'OutputTo=NUL'. or 2) Get the fixed version of I-Net. That version is I-Net for windows 5.01.WE1 or greater. This marks the twentieth bug I have found in 4 different Informix products. Unfortunately I didn't find it first so I can't take credit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Hey....like all these positive waves man...Maybe we can't lose." amato@chiron.com (510)420-4765 1994 Pittsburg Steelers: 5-2-0 Next Game: Sun 10/30 @Arizona 5:00pm pst (TNT) Thank you for pot smoking. - The American Cannibus Society - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
