[Samba] Samba Speed Problem

Hi..

Can anybody help me..  here is my problem:

I have a little LAN with a Samba Box (It's my PDC), and some DOS PCs,
running my core bussiness application (Foxpro 2.6)

All the Boxes are Intel 440BX2 whit Celeron 600MHZ, HD 10GB Maxtor 5400RMP,
64MB RAM and 3Com 905B Nic.

The DOS Box have MSDOS 6.22 with MSClient 3.0

everything it's Ok about the connection and autentication with samba, the
problem is that the Network performance is too slow when i try to copy some
files to the samba share folder from the DOS Box. When I try to do the copy
in the other way (From Samba Server to the DOS Box) the copy it's Awesome
Faster.

i have about two weeks searching the internet, reading the samba docs,
changing parameters, changing Network Card, Processor, Hard Drive, and
nothing works.  I know some people has this problem, but i don't find the
solution by myself.

I really want to kick out my NT Server from The Lan, but with this Samba
performance i can't do that.

Somebody can help me??  i would really appreciate if someone can helpme..
Thanx,,,
