Hello Drew,
 
The past two months we have been searching for a solution for this topic. We run Citrix Metaframe 1.8 on W2k TS and had lots of performance problems. I sent some questions about this to the list, but got no answers.
 
What we finally found that was causing the problem is that we had our Internet Explorer cache on a network drive (NT 4.0 SP6 server). Putting this on a local drive gave an enormous performance boost.
 
We still are having problems with the performance to a Samba server. Indeed: there is only one daemon per W2k server. We modified several registry settings and turn off oplocks on both the Samba machine and the W2k servers, but it does not make any difference. On the Samba server (HP A400, Hp-UX 11i, Samba 2.0.7) we see a lot of disconnects and reconnects. Why this is: no answer from the list!
 
A way to force Samba to start more than one daemon is using a lot of Netbios aliases for the same server. If you give every user an alias for the service to connect, than every user gets its daemon. We have not yet implemented this, so I don't know if there are any side-effects. I also don't know if there is a maximum number of aliases.
 
I think that there are not that many sites where they use W2k TS in combination with Samba. That this combination gives problems is very clear to me. I think this is a pitty; we almost were thinking of geting rid of Samba and implement a Windows 2000 File server ...
 
Kind regards,
Jan Mostert
