I am experiencing a "one-way delay" in file transfers from Microsoft Clients (Windows 95 and Windows NT) to Samba. FreeBSD 3.3-Stable as of Oct 8 1999 samba 2.0.5 installed from the ports collection smb.conf includes this line: socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_SENDBUF=16384 SO_RCVBUF=16384 (originally it had just 'TCP_NODELAY' but I added the others per suggestions found in on-line resources) Network is a 10/100 Mbps Bay Switch with all below running 100 Mbps ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Client Send 1MB to SAMBA Receive 1MB from SAMBA copy e:\test\file u:\ copy u:\file e:\test ------------------------ ---------------------- ---------------------- Microsoft Windows 95 15 seconds Instantaneous Microsoft Windows NT4 15 seconds Instantaneous IBM OS/2 + TCP/IP 4.1 Instantaneous Instantaneous ------------------------------------------------------------------------- (IBM OS/2 TCP/IP 4.1 is an optional IBM TCP/IP stack for OS/2 which IBM describes as a "BSD 4.3 stack") I had mentioned this at FreeBSDCon, and several people had suggestions, most mentioned the "TCP_NODELAY" option. I still see this delay. Do others run 3.3-Stable and Samba also see this type of delay? Are there other suggestions for solving this trouble?
