What happens is this. Samba seems to be really slow in giving the needed files to the win95 boxes even over 100 megabit. We have tried compiling different versions of samba but they are all slow. We tested samba on linux and it is much quicker than freebsd. So we tried using the smb.conf file from linux but that did not help. We tried lots of different options with samba in the .conf file and some things worked better than others but it still does not work properly. If you could give some insight into the problem it would be greatly appreciated. Greg Haa greg@z-axis.com
