[Debian Lenny::Samba/CIFS] Network File Transfers Slow
Greets,
I am running Debian Lenny and have been experiencing this issue transferring files from my Linux box (ngz) to other computers (core,mex,jr) on the network. There are 4 in total. I should also mention its through cifs mounts. Whenever I transfer files from any other computer including ngz, its fine, hovering around 40-60MB/s. When I try to transfer from ngz to any other computer, its as if its treated as a 100mb/s as opposed to a 1Gb/s connection only transferring around 9-11MB/s. Upon boot I notice that the link is up at full duplex 1000Mb/s so I'm not sure whats going on there. Also, all the computers are in fact connected at 1Gb/s full duplex. Is there something I need to change in smb.conf to get faster transfer speeds? ____________________________________________________________________ UPDATE I should mention that using FTP gives me about 45-60MB/s when uploading. I also tested transferring a file to the linux box and its about the same as the FTP 45-60MB/s. I did some more research today and managed to get it up to about 25MB/s~ by changing the following options to: Code:
obey pam restrictions = no So far heres what I have... ngz = server core/mex/jr = clients ngz --> core/mex/jr = ~25MB/s ngz <-- ngz/core/mex/jr = ~55MB/s core/mex/jr <--> core/mex/jr = ~55MB/s ____________________________________________________________________ UPDATE I'm really at a loss here, I've googled this problem like crazy and still cant find any solid solutions. I've tried all the conf tweaks I could find and I'm far from getting Gb speeds, not even a third of Gb! Heres a screenshot if a testfile I transfered. http://one.xthost.info/ngz02/smb_xfer_01.png Heres my ifconfig output. Code:
ngz:~# ifconfig eth0 ____________________________________________________________________ Any insight fellas/(ladies)? Did I miss anything? |
