Are you doing client compression? Is the W2K3 server 32 or 64bit? Do you have full gigE end to end (no routers or edge switches being the bottleneck)? I have 32bit Exchange TDP clients running in the 18-25MB range, some of my 64bit SQL Server TDP clients reach 95MB (1TB in 3hrs), but most of my 32bit app Windows servers are more in the 5-15MB range. All of these use client compression.

I was using the tdp client for lotus notes. My work around was to take a second network interface on the server and lock both the port and the client down to 100/full duplex. This tdp client is the only one I have to run on this second interface and it works fine now. I don't know if you have a hdwe. second interface, but if you do, try adding another ip address and give it a try...TSM allows for the use of more then one hdwe. interface... At any rate kindly let me know what your resolution is as I'm interested... thx jimmyd James Drozynski IBM Pittsburgh Lab 11 Stanwix Street Pittsburgh Pa. 15222 Tel:412-667-4421 Fax:412-667-6975 Tie:989-4421 -----------------------------------------------------------------------` Please see the following link for the BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee E-mail disclaimer: http://www.bcbst.com/email_disclaimer.shtm
