I've seen this problem mentioned many times in the various FAQs and How-Tos on the Internet, but none of the solutions presented therein have worked for me.

[global]
        workgroup = UNIX
        server string = OPTIMUS
        interfaces = eth0
        log level = 1
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
        max log size = 0
#       socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=4096 SO_SNDBUF=4096
#       socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=65536 SO_SNDBUF=65536
#       socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=262144 SO_SNDBUF=262144
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=524288 SO_SNDBUF=524288
#       socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=1048576 SO_SNDBUF=1048576
        domain logons = Yes
        os level = 65
        preferred master = Yes
        domain master = Yes
        wins support = Yes
        ldap ssl = no
        admin users = root
        hosts allow = 192.168.1.
        getwd cache = yes
        lpq cache = 30
        use sendfile = yes
        dnsproxy = no
        netbios name = xxxxxxx
        oplocks = yes

I started out with the default configuration and tried all the commented out socket options. The 512k buffer about doubled my speed but my test file transfer (700Mb file) is still much faster under ftp than samba. I transfer my test file in 24 seconds under ftp and 2-4 minutes under samba.

Both interfaces are on both computers are fine and the duplex settings are correct and error free.

I tried removing the *.tdb files, no help.

This gigabit connection should always be performing as it does under ftp, any advice?
