I have 2.0.6 running on a FreeBSD 3.4-current box with a 3com-905b
NIC, linking to a 5-port 10/100 hub at 100Mb, half-duplex. I'm
connecting to the share with an OSR2 box with another 905b at 100Mb,
half-duplex.
Here's the problem: I can write to the share at about 3.5 MB/s, but
can only read at about 250k/sec. I tried FTPing a file from the BSD box
and got about 3-4 MB/s. I'm all out of ideas. I've tried tweaking the
cache levels, changing the protocol, adjusting socket options, and
generally anything I can think of.
Here is my smb.conf
[global]
debug level = 0
logfile = /var/log/%m.log
workgroup = BAGGINS
server string = bsd
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY IPTOS_THROUGHPUT
SO_SNDBUF=32678 SO_RCVBUF=32678
write raw = yes
read raw = yes
read size = 65536
shared mem size = 6291456
lock directory = /var/lock/samba
locking = yes
security = share
protocol = LANMAN2
[BSDshare]
path = /usr/netbios
writeable = true
hosts allow = 10.0.0. 127.0.0.1
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 777
guest ok = yes
