Maybe a little more info. My network with WIn98's, Win95's, Win NT4 and
E-smith server worked fine and at normal speed. One of the machines changed
to Win 2000 and for this machine all network activity (in and out) is
painfully slow. Even E-smith backup and restores (to the desktop) appear
about 10x slower to this machine.
