Hi,

I've a strange issue with the performance of file transfers between a Samba server and a Vista client.

Is this reading or writing to the Samba server ?

Jeremy.
Both directions.
I've made another little tests. I've again copied the same test-file to the samba-server (still 7MB/s) and my MacBook (which runs the Apple-provided version of Samba) (still over 20MB/s with 40MB/s peak) and vice versa. Then I copied the same file to and from the samba-server, but with ftp (proftpd running on the fileserver) and guess what: 45MB/s!

Does Vista maybe under some circumtances use some kind of screwed up fallback protocol, which is so much slower than it should be? Even over 100Mbit fast ethernet I should get more than 7MB/s! I'm beginning to believe, that M$ wan't to tell me, to use their overpriced so-called "server software". :-/
