i haven't got any real numbers. subjective judgement only :). it was very much slower when i was testing samba maybe a year or so ago. i'll be testing again when i get the time. back then, i got so fed up with the speed i gave up on using samba and would just sftp the damn files over, work on them, then delete them on the local machine when i was done. because even sftp, with the wait, felt faster than doing things interactively in samba. but i might have had some misconfiguration too. i should test again. tiger -- Gerald Timothy Quimpo gquimpo*hotmail.com tiger*sni*ph http://bopolissimus.sni.ph an xcdngl nntrstng jrnl Public Key: "gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 672F4C78" The early monastics were distrustful of religious experiences because of the human ability to make subjective needs and desires into truths about the universe.
