Yep what I have sound be fine.  I just don't understand why some
applications that use files from the Linux server run fine, while others
are slow as molasses in January.  Like M$ Excel.  With only one Win 95
system connected though Samba, it takes over a minute to load one
spreadsheet file.  But open up a bunch of files in my html editor and they
run fine off the Linux server, even with multiple win95 clients accessing
them.  Got me stumped...
