Thank you all! You can ommit read- and write-size using tcp-mounts. From 'man mount_nfs': -w Set the write data size to the specified value. Ditto the com- ments w.r.t. the -r option, but using the ``fragments dropped due to timeout'' value on the server instead of the client. Note that both the -r and -w options should only be used as a last ditch effort at improving performance when mounting servers that do not support TCP mounts. I have a solaris 9 nfs-server with vxfs and I used to mount using udp but then I ran into 'server not responding' and changed to tcp-nfs-mount instead. I just copied a 200 MB file to the nfs-server in 7.5 sec. which is 26.6 MB/s. -- regards Claus When lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the gentler gamester is the soonest winner.
