50 meg linux users online this evening?


[link to this post]
 
Is anyone here:

(1) on a VM 50 meg connection
(2) with a linux box where I can ssh into (to use wget)
(3) who is around tonight with 20 mins to spare?

Bonus points if you have java working and can run speed tests in your browser smile

It makes it more difficult for me to use your system to download things without causing lots of traffic on the link.. it's just quicker in linux smile

Remote Desktop does that.. but Linux shell gives far more flexibility for what I needed to do.
