Hi User is complaining about slow ness they copy images ISO from unix storage to PC and then burn dvd and cds. the typical size of each image is 600MB they do it 4 to 5 at once am running samba on solaris which acts gateway to nfs stored images. i have no option of installing samba on local storage. I appreciate your replies its critical for them what does samba do when we copy files from nfs to pc thanks
