(or more likely... ME :) the speed isn't eratic, in fact, its pretty stable... but stable at SLOOOOOW speeds. is there a "throttle" that limits how fast ftp can work??? if i xfer something thru samba... its much faster..... the problem is limited to ftp (at least that i can tell) any help/hints would be most appreciated!!
