Novell NetWare 3.2 + Paradox => slow Samba

Hi Jim,

Does the Novell NetWare 3.2 server that you are trying to replace with Samba
have any NLM's loaded to implement B-Tree lookups?

If so, B-Tree processing is done on the Novell server without
generating a lot of network I/O.

In order to get the same kind of client - server performance,
you would have to run some Paradox compatible server software on the Samba
box.

Thanks,
