Hi all, I just upgraded to Samba version 2.0.2. This is running on a homemade box with a linux 2.0.35-1 kernel. It has 128 megs of ram 2 adaptec scsi cards, 2 4.5 gig scsi drives, a 10 MBS NIC, and a Pentium 233 MHZ processor. The problem is during testing with smbclient I am only able to get 9 kb/s on a put to a win95 box. I get an acceptable 490 kb/s with a get from the same unit. I have tried every setting I could think of and still the same results. I have tried socket options, adjusted read/write raw. max xmit, max read. I got MTUspeed off of the net and tried adjusting the tcp settings on the windoze box. Can somebody please help me figure this out or tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance for your help.

What about ftp performance? You should average about 500 k/sec each way w/ftp and about 400 k/sec w/smb over a 10 Mbs ethernet. Use files of 5-10 megs for a good average. Which TCP/IP parameters did you tweak on the windoze client (and how did you tweak them)? ****************************************************************** Stephen L Arnold sarnold@earthling.net Conserving bandwidth (and bellybutton lint)
[Mike Ledford] Performance is the same when dragging files in explorer, this is how I noticed this behavior originally. FTP performance is not much better. 100 kb/s from samba to win and 687 kb/s from win to samba. The windows box was tweaked with mtuspeed.exe as per the directions in the Speed2.txt doc included with samba. MaxMTU = remove, RWIN = remove, MTUAutoDiscover = disable, MTUBlackHoleDetect = disable, TTL = enabled, TTL Hops = 32, NDI Cache Size = 0. mikel@amberelectric.com Michael T.
