Re: Setting up TCPIP on new i5

Was this using SNDPTFORD?

I never use that now - rather, I always go to Fix Central and choose 
only to use FTP download, then using the instructions they send to 
FTP directly to the IFS. Then I put the images into an image catalog, 
and bada-boom

Of course, this can take a lot of bandwidth, and one's network folks 
might get upset if you do hours' long downloads in the middle of the 
day. (rubs back of hand where slapped!) So there's a trade-off . But 
at least with FC you can force the system not to mail the fixes.
