OK. I'm using an Intel NIC, according to lspci it is: Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02)
Using latest e1000 driver from Intel, from source.
This host (fedora core 2) is on a gigabit segment on our LAN. Other (Mac OSX) hosts on this segment are not having the problem.
An NT 4.0 box is on the 10/100 segment of the LAN. The fc2 host has smbmount-ed a directory on the NT machine.
Here's the problem: file transfers between these two computers have become extremely slow. Talking 50k/s.
Here's 'ifconfig -v eth0' output:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:07:E9:xx:xx:xx
inet addr:192.xxx.x.xx Bcast:192.xxx.x.xxx Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: xxxx::xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

Base address:0xd000 Memory:cff80000-cffa0000
Thought it might be samba, but scp file transfers are just as slow. And it's any host on the 10/100 segment, not just the NT box.
I'm using the e1000 driver with the default parameter settings.
Can anybody help?
Thanks,
Steve
