hello,
I have a couple of questions, and would greatly appreciate any suggestions or advice ..
1. I am unable to compile the latest version (1.6.5) of iPerf on Windows 2000. I am trying to compile the source code in a cygwin window - I have installed the base cygwin and accompanying gcc - and I get the following error:

In file included from gnu_getopt.c:75:
gnu_getopt.h:95: redefinition of `struct option'
make[1]: *** [gnu_getopt.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/vinay/thesis/snmp/software/traffic/compi
le/lib'
make: *** [lib/libdast.a] Error 2

What am I doing wrong? Is there any other way to compile iPerf in windows 2000? I also have MS Visual Studio... I tried finding the answers to this elsewhere, but havent had success so far.

2. I am trying to test whether it is possible to send UDP datagrams at different time instants(VBR, to some extent) using iPerf. The maximum resolution that windows is currently giving me for the delay_loop() function, and consequently the gettimeofday() function is about 10015 microseconds (about 10 mSecs). Is there a setting that I could change somewhere, and make it work better? 

Thank you,
Vinay.
