Hello, I had a system running nicely, replacing a Netware server with Samba 2.2.6. I had not removed the Novell client, or its IPX protocol from Win98 workstations, yet everything was working nicely. I upgraded to Samba 2.2.7a, and now all of a sudden, all the Win98 workstations that had the Novell client on them got deathly slow.
I "solved" the problem by removing fully the Novell client, and IPX, but something in the change from 2.2.6 o 2.2.7a definitely messed things up. I note that a Win2k server does NOT have this same problem (with slow access). Now, the slowness I think happens in a file open/close or something similar, as I did some timing tests, and determined that copying one large file still is about the same speed. But running an app that opens a number of files definitely shows up this problem.
