Hello,
Got one unindentified problem on a setup that goes as follows:
5-port 10/100 switch.
3 WinXP's, one of them acts as ICS and file server.
Each has identical connection options (100tx full duplex, 128 r/t
buffers), and protocols installed:
client for microsoft networks,
file and printer sharing for microsoft networks,
internet protocol (tcp/ip with netbios over tcp enabled).
The problem shows itself only when i try to open a program on a file
server from another workstation that loads couple of 1000's of files
from the server but not if i copy large files from/to the server.
I've read that disabling tcp and installing pure netbeui might help
with the small files ovehead, does that make sense - especially if i
intend to continue providing the internet connection using ICS on the
file server ?
Otherwise bandwidth goes from 7.2MB (task manager) to 10.5 (AIDA32)
for large files.
