First, I am running RH 9 on my workstation and have a RH 7.1 box running as a webserver. I mount /home via nfs from the RH 7 box to my workstation. I have noticed that write speeds to /home are very slow, with no obvious reason. If I copy a file from /tmp (local) to /home/raymond (remote) it takes forever, and there is next to no network usage or cpu load. Transfers in the opersite direction saturate the 10MBit connection.
Are you getting any TX or RX errors on the wire? Collisions etc? Retransmissions?
No notable transmission errors, there are a few errors and collisions, but nothing out of the ordinary for a Half Duplex 10 Mbit link. The Network is fine as I am able to FTP the file at full speed.
