There are 2 Linux boxes and 1 Windows box. My test is a directory with a little over
5 M of various size files copied between the 2 Linux boxes using either Windows or
Linux. Linux is, understandably, faster but it is still slow. Windoze took 15
minutes to do this copy.
Windoze is using nfsAxe from http://LabF.com. This allows Windoze to be a nfs client
or server.
Both /etc/exports files look like this:
/home 192.168.1.0/22(rw,no_root_squash)
One /etc/fstab looks like this:
oci:/home /mnt nfs rw,noauto,user 1 1
The other looks like this:
server:/home /mnt nfs rw,noauto,user 1 1

When NFS is working properly (and over UDP on a local ethernet) it is
very fast. What's your configuration?
