Doh, I think my brain’s still out camping — disregard my last sentence. 20000 miliseconds = ~20 seconds. :)

Karl, want me to edit the blog post above?

Sorry, been out of town camping for the past few days :) Karl / Zkam thanks for the comments … According to Microsft’s site http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc978624.aspx it says the setting of 20000 is 20 seconds. But it also says “miliseconds in decimal”. Wouldn’t 20000 miliseconds be 200 seconds (or ~3 minutes)?

Thanks for the tip, but I think you’re an order of magnitude off in your time calculations:

20000 ms = 20 seconds, not 3+ minutes
300 ms = 0.3 seconds, not 3 seconds

Am I right?

Was that supposed to be 3000 and not 300 ?
