I am running Samba 2.0.7 on a FreeBSD (4.1) RAID box. Copying files of approximately 500Kb from a Windoze '98 box is giving absoultely dire performance, in the region of 500Kb/s. On the same network I have run the same test from NT - FreeBSD which gives about 3.7Mb/s and from Windoze '98 - Linux (running Samba 2.0.7) which gives around 4Mb/s so it appears the problem is to do with FreeBSD. The fact that Win98 - Linux provides decent figures suggests it isn't a Samba thing which was my first suspicion but I have reached the end of the road with what to try next. Any advice/suggestions would be gratefully received. Thanks, Ben Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
