I experienced the same problems, but when I used smbclient to connect to a Windows NT4 box instead of the other way around, the put command was about 4 times slower than the get command. So it seems to me that putting a file is slower than getting a file. I don't know whether this is possible (isn't get the same as put?) but I hope this gives you another idea as to where to look for the problem. -Rik van Mierlo -rik@ricardis.tudelft.nl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
