[Samba] Drop down slowness on mapped drives

[James Langan]

Hello,   We have a Windows 2000 Network with a few FreeBSD boxes running Samba. We have a share on one box specifically that we map to everyone’s workstations. Ever since this day the file drop down box in applications such as word or excel goes incredibly slow. If we remove the drive mapping, the speed returns to normal. I’ve searched and browsed newsgroups and mailing lists and haven’t found a clear cut answer, but if I missed it I apologize. I do have the tcp_nodelay option uncommented in the config file. If anyone has any ideas, I’d appreciate some help.   Thanks!   -James
