Hello,
This is not a question...
I would like to say to all those people running older versions of Samba
(older than 1.9.18).
I have been using the p4 and p5 and I strugled with domain logons. Today, I
installed the
1.9.18 and I have to say that it improved the performance dramatically. NT
domain logons
now are instant (2-3 seconds), compared to NT (4-5 seconds). Second Samba
(drag and drop)
copy outperforms win95 ftp majorly. We are not completely switching from NT
to Samba..
Here is an example:
74mb file (10mbit LAN):
Download (fast)
(from Samba/UNIX => Win95)
Samba: 2mins:8seconds
FTP: 3mins:7seconds
Upload (a bit slower)
(Win95 => Samba/UNIX)
Samba: 3mins:20seconds
FTP: 3mins:16seconds
P.S.: I would like to thank the Samba team for an excellent peace of
software !!!
Sincerely Yours,
Richard Furda
