I have samba set up and works fine but I only get about a 2Mb transfer rate. Now I know samba has a large overhead but I was just wondering what does everyone else get on their tranfer rates average.
I've got like 46Mbit/s (= 5,75 Mbytes/s) on 2 machines connected via 100Mbits/s cards and a switch. Our networking people told me I ought to be happy as this was 'close to perfect'.
