Re: [Duplicity-talk] Network Fuzzing Tool

[Maurizio Vitale]

if you use virtual machines on vmwire you can create network segments  
and
set latency, bandwidth and error rate for each segment individually.

Even if you need delays/error between two physical machines it is  
probably easier
to put a VM between them.

I don't know if the free vmware server allows this, but if you use it  
for work the $200 for vmware
workstation are very well spent.

I'm not familiar with the free virtualization solutions available.  
They may very well be able to do the same.
