Forget about 2.0, 2.2.7 or later req'ed iirc. About your perm prob: upgrade client side VFS module to 1.0.4 (if it isn't already in 2.6.6) and mount.cifs to latest version, some credentials issues patched there, too. Apart from that - when you got it working, can you try copying a few hundred MB

Good news for you: utf8 works fine. Sadly I need LATIN9 ... :( No, it doesn't. when I let Samba export UTF8, the Linux client (Slackware 9.1) sees the files alright in ls, but when I try to do anything with them like move, copy, open I get couldn't get stats: file or dir doesn't exist. Great.

If FTP is fast and Samba is slow, I doubt the problem is the NIC. If the NIC were at fault FTP would be slow, too. Hm. Try CIFS then. Has some bugs still, tho, but is twice as fast as smbfs here. (But rtl8169 sucks anyway :) ) Dex -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL
