Xin LI, Thank you for your help. Setting sysctl net.inet.tcp.tso=0 resolved the issue completely. What does sysctl net.inet.tcp.tso=0 do? Where can I read more about the option? I captured tcpdumps of a single file transfer to 7.1, 7.2 and 7.2 with sysctl net.inet.tcp.tso=0, but they are to large to attach to this list. Let me know if you are interested in viewing the dump files. Thanks again for your assistance!home | help
