access Explanation: I think they are just referring to access here -- every time someone accesses the FTP packet, the counter increases by one. This seems similar to a standard website counter where each hit/site access is counted. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2006-04-04 20:14:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I would still stay with access. You don't really tap into an FTP packet (and there are 0 google hits for that exact phrase). But access is very similar to tapping here in that it's equally passive (or that's how I interpret it anyway). |

processing Explanation: das Durcharbeiten des Pakets -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2006-04-04 20:02:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Netzwerkverkehr an Kommunikationsleitungen ... passiv abgreifen I believe this instance requires a different translation; I'd use measure. abgreifen is like abtasten; i.e. a type of collecting info There's really not enough context; what's the function of the FTP-Paket? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 hrs (2006-04-05 16:39:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Thx, add'l info helps - Pakete contain the data of each time the app is applied - then the data gets processed. So IMO there are two translations: first, the actual 'measuring', then the 'processing' (in this case) of the results |
