samba - May 2002 - samba speeds

Well I tried #freebsdhelp and got confirmation that this is just
not happening to me but we couldn't figure it out there either...

with:

	FreeBSD 4.5
	Samba 2.2.2
	    |
	 100Base T Crossover link
	    |
	Window XP Pro

Upload win to unix speeds are around ~400k/sec

Download unix to win speeds are around ~5000k/sec

checked for net collisons (there are none)

anyone find a fix for this?

Thanks,

Tsdiorus

What network card are you using.  I also noticed this problem and was 
able to change the raw writes option.  There also have been very many 
speed fixes I believe since 2.2.2.  I would highly advice you upgrade 
to 2.2.4 and see if the problem still exists.

Ok I installed 2.2.4 and the upload is actually a little slower so then I
added to the smb.conf

write raw = No (as this is the only other option I know of, default is yes)

No change

the nic I am using is a netgear FA311 (sis0)  in both the xp and Freebsd
machine
/var/log/log.smb
The only log messages are from startup

(I should fix that bind error but it figures out the address eventually :)


Any other ideas???   Perhaps something I can change in the XP box to send
files differently?

Thanks,
