Hullo there,
I've just moved my backup server offsite.
The server has an nfs mounted share on my server at work, and the work server runs dirvish backup (which uses rsync), backing up to this mounted directory. I'm using an openvpn tunnel, and have specified the nfs mount thus: rw,hard,wsize=1024,rsize=1024,tcp,addr=10.3.0.3.
Both tun0 have MTU=1500, and the network connection between work and home is broadband.
Anyway, it took me ages to get it all going and it finally works, but it seems ever so slooooow. Is there a handy way to check transfer rate, or a way to speed it up?
Thanks, Jenny
