windows 2003 intranet traffic

It seems that Windows 2003 standard server was by default configured to
limit the bandwidth used by Microsoft networking. How could I remove the
limit? I tried hacking the QoS value but to no avail.

is this related to the DEP?

Not sure what you're referring to - TCP/IP connections per second? If so,
try this:

Thanks. It's not exactly the problem described by the patch. When I used
ftp to upload a file from my Windows 2003 server to a remote host, it's
upload rate is just 10-20% of the maximum bandwidth and there was no
other workstations talking to that host. When I tried to copy files out
of that host using Microsoft networking, Windows 2003 server used only
30-50% of the maximum bandwidth available. Also, browsing the shares on
the remote host was also very slow.

Evaluating the performance using PING routine:
System : SERVER
Link Speed ( in Mbps ) : 2 <-- I am on a 10Mbps LAN

Evaluating the performance using QOS:
System : SERVER

Link Speed ( in Mbps )[incoming] : 9 <-- larger than 2? why?
Link Speed ( in Mbps )[outgoing] : 9

Does it mean I should install QoS services to the network card?

following my trace using linkspeed, I just got these:

pinging from windows 2003 to the server:

ping from knoppix linux to the same server:

0.6 ms vs 50ms. Why is there such a big difference?
