Win2K box and the file server are on the same switch. They are both configured as 100FD, AutoNeg=Off. I have not met anyone so far with that much performance difference, though some reported 1:2 speed ratio. Attached is our config file for your information. I've searched through this mail lists' archives. I couldn't find a solution, though I've seen people reporting similar issues. - Does anyone know of any solution ? Anything else I should check ? - I would appreciate Win2k Copy/Paste time measurements similar to mine from anyone who does or does not experience a problem. Maybe we can figure out the solution by comparing the results and the configs. ----------------------------- <file://%7C%7C//> \\||// (@ @) ---oOO----(_)----OOo--- Live long and prosper ................................. mustafa ------_=_NextPart_001_01C216C0.88781C20 Content-Type: text/html; charset="WINDOWS-1254" <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=WINDOWS-1254"> <TITLE id=ridTitle>Glacier</TITLE> <STYLE><!-- body { font-family: Arial, Helvetica; font-size: 10pt; color: #006666; margin-top: 20px; margin-left: 50px; } --></STYLE> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2600.0" name=GENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY id=ridBody background=cid:340525211@18062002-2ac3> <DIV> <P><SPAN class=Text><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"><FONT color=#000080><SPAN class=340525211-18062002>This issue is being discussed simultaneously on [HPADM] mail list, and ITRC forums, and I-DEAS (CAD software) mail-lists; for those who are also subscribed to those lists..</SPAN></FONT></FONT></SPAN></P> <P><SPAN class=Text><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"><FONT color=#000080>We have purchased a X2100 Win2K box recently.
