The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
File sharing is still HUGELY slow and unreliable after all these years when using NetServer/QNTC.
We have resorted to other methods such as using NFS shares to Windows servers (which works well) and also using SAMBA for Netbios file copies from the i.
We have asked to get the SAMBA server and client implemented on i.
I'm not sure if our IBM requirement will ever make it into the OS, but we at least tried :-)

What version of the OS are you on? IBM has improved IFS performance some, although still not optimum when compared to file servers on Windows.
I hope someone can contradict that statement - we (RJS) have a requirement in to IBM around this matter.

Guys,
I mapped a drive to my IFS file share and it takes a long time to
bring back the directory of files.
The directory has about 500 files under it and the directory size is
6.00 TB.
I Stopped then Started the Windows Network Neighborhood Server, but it
is still very slow.
What can be done to speed this up?
