The software we need runs in win9x.
We crave stability.  But Linux+Samba is just much slower as a file 
server.

	It's normally quite fast: are you running over a
	dial-up network, requiring you to adust MTU's for
	speed???

	If not, try ``socket options = TCP_NODELAY'', which
	adapts server TCPs to a MS feature (:-)) and produces considerable
	speed increases...
