I was talking about Java performance and about accessing IFS from native
i programs.

NetServer tends to be awful, but there must be some way to tune it. I
have one customer where NetServer works really, really well, even over
VPN.

I recall talking to Dave Boutcher about NetServer some five or six years
ago at COMMON. As I recall, NetServer is a Samba port that he and a
group in Rochester did. At least it started that way.

We've used the Samba client on the i to get out to Windows network
shares with great success. Far better than QNTC. (I'll bet QNTC is a
Samba port under the covers, too.)

I believe Dan's comment was directed toward Java performance, not IFS
file server performance. The latter can be extremely disappointing. I
believe Richard has wrapped up some samba protocol that really flies.
But don't quote me until he says so here!!

Almost done for the day!

There are people that have done some of these things and I'll take
real world experience over "should"'s.

We tried using the i as a simple file server but the OS, (no if, and's

or
buts) couldn't cut it. -snip-
