Re: Slow file sharing performance

Hi Peter

would you like to enighten me on this - I can't see how this applies.

what happens is that when run over the cipe link there appears to be no actual 
data transfer. The laptop sends an icmp - port unreachable - for the smb 
dgram port. This does get back to the file server. 

I think this is a samba set up problem but I don't know enough about samba. We 
use it - but only on local lans - remote is just too slow fo practical use.

Best regards

Allan
