    I was having problems using mount_smbfs to transfer files. It would
    throttle itself up and down because of some weird windowing thing
    windows does. That is what I found on the web anyway.

    On a what type of network(some config info please, like any switchs?)
    do you share files and what is the throughput? I would get between
    1-12mbits(it was a while so these numbers might not be right, but it
    was slow like 10mbit or less). I was transferring tv episodes between
    2 pcs on a 100mbit switched network. FreeBSD to windows.

    Finnally I would like to ask all those servers/pcs that are mostly idle
    to run folding@home if you can. Email me if you have any questions on
    it. It runs itself at nice 20.

    Thanks,
    Jason
