Hi, I can't get a normal lan-speed copy from debian wheezy client to xp "server":
Server is WindowsXP SP3, client is debian testing (updated as at about a week or two ago). Fresh boot: $ sudo mount -t cifs -o file_mode=0666,dir_mode=0777,setuids,credentials=mycreds //server.ip.address/git /x $ rsync -vv --progress libreoffice-calc-guide_CG34-CalcGuideLO.pdf /x/ delta-transmission disabled for local transfer or --whole-file libreoffice-calc-guide_CG34-CalcGuideLO.pdf 9729872 100% 71.14MB/s 0:00:00 (xfer#1, to-check=0/1) total: matches=0 hash_hits=0 false_alarms=0 data=9729872 sent 9731164 bytes received 31 bytes 93121.48 bytes/sec total size is 9729872 speedup is 1.00 ----------------- Please note the about 90KiB/second result above. The fastest run I got was nearly 100KiB/second, but all runs a similar slow speed. The client is a gigabit eth network, but the server is only 100Mib ethernet port, so maximum speed should (and used to be) about 6 to 9 MiB/second! The duration of the above rsync command is also in the order of 2 minutes. I've been experiencing this slowness over the last 5 months, and know of no changes to the server at all - other clients (windows XP) do not have this slowness problem. I've tried 3 different cables, two different switch ports on one switch, one port on a second switch (to which the server is also directly connected to, all produce the same slow file copy result. So it appears to be a debian configuration problem on my part. Any help appreciated, Zenaan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
