Brock Palen suggested that I try iperf3. But then I *KNOW* the network works and is solid. (Famous last words.) But I tried iperf3 anyway....and....my network is broken.
In short, the machine in question gets gigabit speeds down and shockingly low speeds upward. I'm now checking cables, etc. to find the problem. There was just enough upward bandwidth for normal client activities (email, web, etc.) to work fine with the high speed downward lanes. Clearly, bareos isn't the problem here. Thanks again to this group!
