Hi All,

Please could someone help else ....

I have a desperate problem with my machine at work when i try to syncronize
with folders and files over the network. It can Literally take all night and
even a few hours during the day to actually syncronize my PC to the Server
connected at a different site. This for me is now approaching desperation and
i am seriously considering quitting my job over it.

I have a windows XP machine which connects to a Cisco 2950 switch which then
connects to a Cisco 800 router - it passes a firewall into the cloud back
through the firewall into a F&P server in a different town. I am unsure as to
how many hops it passes but i suspect the problem may be that either or both
of the switches are set to 10 mbps rather than 100.

i am unsure of why the Cisco 800 router is there. Can anyone explain given
the above information of what might be causing the syncronize to take as long
as it is. Just to explain further - once i have syncronized all folders/files
i only have to correct some text on ONE FILE but still get the sync problem.

Any information on the above would be very useful. If anyone requires any
further information please let me know.

Kind Regards.

There really is no way to speed it up other than either increasing the
bandwidth or reducing the amount of data.
Also you might need to evaluate if it is really necessary to sync the
data or not.

Talk with your systems admin since it seems from your description you
obviously did not set this up.
 
Re: Networking issue

Hello Peter,

The router is needed to connect to the other town. Normal switches will not
route traffic, except Layer 3 switches. But if you have so many data to sync,
you should talk to your system administrators. You can have a low bandwith
connection, driver problems on your machine, the switch setup can be problem
or the router. Shouldn't be anything with the firewall, because you said,
it works slowly but it works. With the information you gave it is not easy
to help you. But the admins of your company should help you, to fix the problem.
That's there basics.

Best regards

Re: Networking issue

Hi Meinolf and SF,

Thanks very much for the information it is kindly appreciated. The problem i
have is that the IT department are NOT helpful and treat me as if i am
causing the problem hence the anxiety.

Why once the XP machine has syncronized a full sync does it need to sync
EVERYTHING again? Why does it only sync the files that have been ammended?
Also could it be a problem with the speed on either the 800 or 2950 being at
10 instead of 100 mbps? Would there be a way of myself finding out the
bandwith used by my laptop whilst its docked?

If you require any further information please let me know and i will post
details.

Regards.

Re: Networking issue

Hello Peter,

If your IT department is not helpful, i would go to there boss. It's there
work to get the network running, so that you can work without problems. Even
if the problems may be done by yourself, then they have to show you the correct
way. You can use tools like xxcopy(freeware) to sync only the changes, but
don't know if it works in your setup/situation.

Re: Networking issue

HiMeinolf,

Once again thanks for the reply. I received an email from the IT dept and my
boss regarding sync and they seem to be blaming me for the time it takes to
sync.

I would like to know how i am able to test the network connections both the
Broadband and the router switches to see if they are running at the correct
speed.

Kind regards.

Re: Networking issue

Hello Peter,

How many data are you syncing, do you talk about KB, MB or GB?

Hello Peter,

If you google for "test network speed", there are lot's of tools to find.

Re: Networking issue

HI Meinolf,

The sync is measured in MB. I think it is close to around 100mb.

Regards.

Will check google out.
