maximum copy size

Nov 15, 2005 2 Replies

I've been trying to copy an 8meg folder from one computer to another on an ethernet connection. I'm unable to copy it all at once. I assume that there's some size limit.



Was wondering what the size limit is or if there's some way to copy the whole folder at once? We're using win98 and transferring from a thinkpad (laptop) to a dell pentiumII tower.

There is no inherent file transfer size limit in ethernet, tcp, or udp.

I would suggest you check with one of the windows newsgroups; the problem is at the Windows layer.

What is SOCKS proxy server?

SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol that enables hosts on one side of

a SOCKS server to gain full access to hosts on the other side of the

SOCKS server without requiring direct IP-reachability. SOCKS is often

used as a network firewall, redirecting connection requests from hosts

on opposite sides of a SOCKS server. The SOCKS server authenticates

and authorizes requests, establishes a proxy connection, and relays

data between hosts.
