Does anyone know of the availability of any tools for measuring CIFS/SMB
performance? To cut a long story short, users access Windows Server 2003 SP1
file servers via SSL VPN solution (Citrix Access Gateway/Secure Access
Client), but file transfer operations sporadically fail resulting in errors
(on XP client) such as "*cannot copy filename: the specified network name is
no longer available*". I'm aware XP's SMB 2.0 protocol is known to be
notoriously "flaky" over the Internet (high latency network connections et
al), but I'd like to run a troubleshooting tool of sorts that will give me
some idea of what's going on under the hood. Any thoughts? Is there a
resource kit tool or something similar that "measures" CIFS/SMB performance
end-to-end?
Thanks in advance,
