Please send a copy of any tcpdumps to me as well, if you would. I spent
a lot of time characterizing the Rabbit Pellet transfer mode. I'll
recognize it right away, if that is what this is.

I have an current "issue" with Samba 2.0.7 and an Win98 box. 
Peak at ~800kb/s one way, 20-30kb/s other way (10MB enviroment) 
I have some captures I will show Chris. 
Could be relevant in this contex.. 
Otherwise, sorry for the OT :)
