My environment:
Linux: SuSE 9.2 Pro AMD64 Windows: Windows XP Pro (32-bit) on an Athlon64 Networking: everything connected with GoC.
From the Linux box, I want to basically back up some stuff from the Windows
box. To do so, I use the following:
smbclient //winbox/share "" -N -Tc backup.tar
This reports the data transfer rate at around 65kb/s
If I use ftp from the Windows box to the Linux box, I can ftp files at around 15MB/s (near hard drive write speed on the Windows box).
Even when I manually copy files using:
smbclient //winbox/share "" -N and then get bigfile.zip
I still get the slow speeds. I did see some things on the 'net about using smbmount and turn the TTL up to 10 seconds or so. I tried this and simply used tar to copy from the mount to a tar file on the local Linux box and the transfer rates are still below 100kb/s
Any ideas?
