Hi guys I am fairly new to samba but managed to mount my NT workstation to Samba on unix server using NT server for password authentification. However i have a huge speed problem. When i download a file from unix via the mounted drive to NT the speed is approx 5kb/sec however if i upload to the unix server my speed is 1333kb/sec. HOW DO I INCREASE MY SPEED WHEN DOWNLOADING TO NT4. This is causing a huge delay in my s/ware development. Using TCP/IP protocol only. Help is much appreciated Roy Roy Marshall My homepage : http://www.geocities.com/rwmarshall_2000 ICQ # : 49824019 E-Mail : rwmarshall@email.com --------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------- FREE!

Hi, This may be obvious, but the cause of *really* slow speeds can often be traced to an incorrect duplex setting on ethernet card(s). Been there more than once myself. How's the ftp speed?

If there is a big difference between put and get performance, this means that most probably somewehre between your computer and server a full duplex or half duplex parameter on your switch or networkcard is wrong configured. -- Have a nice day !
