Interesting.

That shouldn't be, must be missing something.

Do you have anything at your disposal to measure the broadcast rate on your ports for your switch?

I would be curious to know what happens when you engage the SMB protocol to the broadcast rates on the port between client and server when you transfer the file.

One more thing.

Have you recently issue a update for any of the kernel packages and smb packages, but have not yet rebooted?

No, that doesn't sound right.

Is this FTP operation to the same box you are connecting to as SAMBA,
that only takes 2mins?
(i.e. FTP and Samba running on the same box as a service.)

Quick try: Remove that.

Curious question -- why did you set those options?

It didn't change, still says 4 hours and is taking 3 to 4 seconds to
copy

You re-started smbd?

Yeah, I did a 'service smb restart' and everything came back OK.  Just for
grins I rebooted the server about an hour ago, just in case I missed
something.  No dice, same thing.

Still, very slow.  ++4hour estimate to copy a 4GB file.  <2mins via FTP.



System info:
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5 (Tikanga)
    Kerlen 2.6.18-8.el5 SMP x86_64
    Samba version 3.0.23c-2
    Eth0 && Eht1 bonded to bond0, 2Gbps.

    /etc/samba/smb.conf attached below...

I'm seeing very slow transfers from Samba....  I'm not sure how else to
describe it.  If I try and copy a 4GB DVD image from the server to any
Windows box (XP, 2003, 2008, MacOS) it estimates more than 4 hours to copy.
However, if I FTP to the server from any given client I can move the whole
file in less than 2 minutes...

I'm not a Samba expert, so anything is helpful at this point!!!
