They released the proxy a while ago, and it works very nicely. We use it at work, where we have three remote development sites connected by a VPN over fairly narrow pipes -- each site runs a local proxy and things are a lot faster than they used to be. p4p is pretty easy to set up and doesn't require any admin privileges -- take a look at the release notes: http://www.perforce.com/perforce/doc.032/user/p4pnotes.txt Assuming the FreeBSD repository is running a reasonably recent server version, people working with it ought to see a pretty decent speedup if they run a local p4p on their development machines. --nat _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
