File transfer XP <=> SrVR2003

Hi,

Problem at client side.
Situation:
- Ms Windows 2003 Server SP1 on Proliant Architecture (gbit)
- Ms Windows XP SP2 clients (GBit)
- 1Gbit network managed switchen

When working on clients en we request file transfer from en to W2K03 server
shares, the copy goes extremely slow.
When we do the same copying, logged on on server, copying to XP machine, it
goes very fast as normal.

I have seen KB articles 321098 - 311833 - 328890.

I am now downloading Windows 2003 SP2, but I am not sure that will work.
Does anyone has any idea ??

Thanks;

Hello Frank,

Are the switches configured for autosensing or with fixed speed and duplex
mode?

Hello Frank,

Try out for the server ports to set it fixed. We see on our switches (Cisco)
this solves a lot of problems.

Hey Meinolf;

Thanks for the replies!
I'm hope I'm right, but you mean I should try setting the network adapter to
1000Mbit full duplex ?

Thanks Meinolf!

I will certainly try that. BUT, the strange this is:
- When I'm logged on to the client PC (XP SP2) and copy from/to Win2K03: SLOW
- When logged on to W2K03, copy to XP client: FAST

Can you explain that ?
