Jordi Guillaumes i Pons Barcelona - Catalunya - Europa El 16/01/2013, a les 21:17, Cory Smelosky <b4 at gewt.net> va escriure: I run it with asynch disabled for the time being. When I try that, it fails to link. I mean I disable asynchronous IO using the SET NOASYNCH command. BTW that build error deserves to be reported as an issue in GitHub.

Yeah, there's coax, but not in the same room as the /main/ switch There is in another room though that has a switch too. The equipment in the basement is a short run away from the coax splitter down there so that's actually a good idea. -brian On Jan 16, 2013, at 17:12, Cory Smelosky <b4 at gewt.net> wrote: Hello!

If you run cable inside the heating ducts, make sure it's plenum rated (FT6).

If sunlight hits standard Ethernet cable, the UV will destroy the outer jacket in short order, and it will just crumble away. You'd be very lucky if it lasted two summers. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
