It wasn't there before - I just copy and pased the files into the mail... Fun thing is that when I write to the server the performance figures are very good - up to 500MBit/s over GBit channel - write. But read (and only read) is dreadfully slow. I have a switched network (layer 3 switches) and have tried about everything (duplex, flow-contrl, etc) - without luck so far. NFS works like a charm (even from my Mac Systems).
