By reboot SAMBA, i meant do an /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart. Will
look into having dual SAMBAs (as opposed to duelling SAMBAs) running,
sound interesting, not sure how they share the port (although the
modularization of SAMBA TNG should allow that, with the listener
forwarding the stuff appropriately for security).
The main time was that spent doing the copies (fairly large files).
