The problem we are having is slow file transfer speed . We
have replaced our switches. We are hosting other companies
DNS on our mail server.
 
Get a packet sniffer, to see what kind of traffic is
traversing your LAN. Network Spy 2.0 is good. You can
demo it for 3mins of capture. Should give you a basic
idea of what is happening. You may have virus activity as
well. What do you have link speed set to on your switches
and NIC adapters? I've seen some issues with devices that
are set to autonegotiate. Sometimes they don't "agree"
properly on what speed to send data at, and constantly
renegotiate link speeds with each other, causing latency.
