They can improve performance if only one person is using a file. However, if multiple people are accessing the same file they can slow things down and increase network traffic. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

If Oke, thats correct, but is in the normal usage of clients not in copy from server to server.. that's slow, too, you need to check your network for problems. Incorrect duplex settings are one possibility. (A computer set to full-duplex talking to a half-duplex hub, or a switch set to full-duplex talking to a computer set to half. The collisions will only show up on the half-duplex end.) All of our cards are 3c905c or newer and fullduplex switches. It's common for a network with a bad cable or other problems to seem to work I will test the cables, but I don't think they are wrong. fine for moving small files or ping packets around, but to break down under a heavier load. What types of files are you seeing this problem with? If you're using shared database type files, like Microsoft Access MDB or Paradox DB files, you should veto oplocks for those file types.
