OK, I've done the tests I'd said I'd do and here are the results... The
tests were simple, set up a samba share on the computers in question and
use
a windows PC and a Linux (smbclient) PC to read a 350 MB files of the
share:

The desktop had FC1 on it, and I only mentioned it because I did the
test initially on that one before realising that the OS version was
different! But the results were the same as on my laptop which has FC3
installed and a similar configuration to the ProLiant, so I decided top
mention it.

I have a 100Mbps network, which can yeild a maximum tranfer rate of 12
MB/s, if you take the TCP/IP subsystem overhead into account you'll
realise that more than 11 MB/s is bearing on the impossible. Using both
the desktop and the laptop I got nearlly 11 MB/s, one
For what it is worth, I have a Windows XP Athlon 2600 machine with 1GB RAM and
a 100MBit LAN over CAT5, and a SuSE Linux dual Pentium III 1GHz machine with
1GB RAM running Samba 3.0.10. Actually, a very simple configuration.
I measured my transfer rate from the Linux box to the Windows box by
Yes, it's a huge a big difference... Off the ProLiant I can FTP files at
about 8MB/s, so I'm not expecting 10MB/s, but give me at least 6 MB/s,

Great a reply!!! I thought everyone had given up on me!
OK for the specifications, it's a Compaq ProLiant 2500 server with:

- 256 MB EDO RAM
- 36GB RAID(0) Compaq Raid Array (two 18GB SCSI disks)
