Thanks Brian. I tried what you recommended. At first I was very encouraged when I saw things moving across the wire. But about 15 minutes into the transfer things ground to a halt. I am currently running across a GigE channel. Things were moving about 20-40 MB/s but when things stopped moving the transfer rate is down in single digit kb/s. Even doing a top level directory listing takes quite a while.
Not in a happy state.
