    Unhappy File transfer speed to slow!!-HElP!!

    HI

    I have a strage problem whit one server, i try to describe the problem but if u need more information just let me know and i tell u.

    So we have a server and we have instales an Open suse 10.3 on it.
    We created a Samba server also.
    Made to share folder, that we acces from network from other computers that have xp.

    The problem is if we try to copy from server it is very slow only 100-300kb/s.
    The strange thing is that if i copy 1 file then its slow but if i start to copy another one the speed gos up to 10-15mb/s. Evry time i want to copy somethin or install from that server i need to start another copy.
    If i copy from a comp to that server the speed is normal only if i copy from server its slow.

    PLz help
    Thx

    That is odd. This is just a guess but maybe the samba is not configured right. I find it best to keep samba configuration as simple as possible. This might help

    http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/toc.html

    Also be sure that you have the latest version from the repositories

    This is mine

    Code:
    [global]
    	workgroup = MSHOME
    	security = SHARE
    
    [users]
    	comment = All users
    	path = /home
    	read only = No
    	guest ok = Yes
    
    [gogalthorp]
    	comment = Home sweet home
    	path = /home/gogalthorp/
    	read only = No
    	guest ok = Yes
    If your sharing the printer you likely need the cups lines.
