Google for Samba tuning also. -Sean On Jul 26, 2005, at 4:00 PM, Andrew P. wrote: > Hello all! > > I remember being able to reach 11-12Mbytes/s between two Win95 > workstations with NE2000 $10 NIC's installed, connected via BNC cable. > I am now able to reach 11-12Mbytes/s between all kinds of Windows > 2000/XP machines with all kinds of cheapest 100Mbit ethernet hardware. > > But I have never ever exceeded 8-9Mbytes/s between a Windows machine > and a FreeBSD box - _never_.
