When I run my RDC session over VPN and try copying over a folder
from the Host to my Local PC it takes a very long time... 3+hours
for 400mb. For now, I just want to reduce the amount of data that I
need to copy from the Host to my Local PC.
My Host is running Windows 2003 SBS
My Local PC is running Windows XP SP1
Has anyone tried compressing a folder on a Host machine (
right-clicking, choosing send to: compressed folder) and then
copying over the compressed folder back to your local pc and
restoring it.
Will this work between these operating systems?
Yes.
They should both use a "zip" compression method.
Although - you may or may not get much compression out of it - depending on
the type of files.
Sounds like your network/internet connection just needs upgrading.
