I am not quiet sure why they have the port number in there.
I just did a upload of a 3.36MB file and it took,less than 1-2 secs max, both on Windows 7/XP ( actually it was less than 1 sec) I did disable the following on the Windows 2008 server per this thread. RSS,TCP Offload and NETDMA. Information about the TCP Chimney Offload, Receive Side Scaling, and Network Direct Memory Access features in Windows Server 2008 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/951037 Here is the thread: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverfiles/thread/4 6898c7f-92e0-4c99-98d2-18a7458a7d2d Honestly, I think this is a MAC OS issue or bandwidth limitations at the PC side, because I am not seeing it from multiple places transferring files from the XP/Windows 7 side. I just wanted to bounce it off the group since I am no MAC Guru and don't care to be. Z Edward E.

I connect just using smb://server/sharename w/o a problem. Speeds are a little slower than Windows to the W2k3/2k8 server but are fast enough that I've never had issues. ---- Jack Kramer Computer Systems Specialist University Relations, Michigan State University w: 517-884-1231 / c: 248-635-4955 From: "Ziots, Edward" <[email protected]> Reply-To: NT System Admin Issues <[email protected]> Date: Wed, 3 Nov 2010 13:49:49 -0400 To: NT System Admin Issues <[email protected]> Subject: MACs and slow access to Windows 2008 server I got a analyst of mine saying that saving files to a Windows 2008 server on the network is very slow, they are trying it via smb://IP_Address_Of_server:139/sharename Has anyone that is supporting MAC OS and Windows 2008 connections in their organizations seen anything accordingly down these lines. I don't have these problems with Windows 7 or Windows XP... Z Edward E.
