I have FreeBSD v2.0.5 box as a server, on the client side is SCO Unix OSE 5 connected via ethernet (SMC 8216). I've done all I could on the client's side, but still it takes about 8 times as long to copy a file over NFS than, for example, via ftp. Is there anything tweakable in FreeBSD setup that can make a difference? BTW, I can't find any trace of rpc.lockd or rpc.statd under FreeBSD. Aren't they required? Thanks for any help you can provide and, since I'm not a subscriber to this list, if you'll respond, please Cc to mikhail@klm.com. -- mikhail
