Samba Users: Just FYI. We were able to find a "solution" to our file transfer problem. Since the card is a 10/100 NetGear NIC, we plugged the card into a 10/100 port of an Ethernet switch. The two devices negotiated the 100Mbps speed and the files were transferred reliably every time. This ulitmately does not explain the problems when connecting the system to a 10Mbps hub, but right now I don't care because it works and I can do other items. Thanks for everyone's suggestions concerning this problem. I appreciate your time very much. -- Hank Burton ==================================================================== Literati Information Technology, LLC wburton@literati.com PO Box 638 http://www.literati.com/ 68 High Street Morgantown, WV 26507-0638 (304) 296-8026
