And SMB affects both NetServer and Samba, right? And is not specific to
either one?
And the point of that is what?
- Advise having distributed local servers?
- Suggesting another technology, such as NFS?

And why does it perform horribly over WAN?
- Is it generally because of the large volume of data in BLOB stream
files?
- Is it because of some default blocking size often set in WAN's?
- Is it because of some difference between local blocking size and that of
ISP's?

Steve, not jumping on your case, really. Just trying to get the most
benefit out of such a broad statement.
