how to speed up networking?
in [Network and Web]
|
From: peter on 15 Sep 2005 21:36 with multiple winXP on the LAN in a peer-to-peer LAN, it takes half a minute or longer before all the machines show up in my network neighborhood. Then, after clicking on a shared folder from another PC takes another half minute before it expands into sub folders/files. From then on, going into sub folders or accessing files no longer has any delay. Years ago when using win98, there was no such delay. How can I make this delay go away? Does it have anything to do with NTFS? Would it speed up if I have a domain controller?
From: v-jasont on 16 Sep 2005 05:34 Hi Peter, Thanks for posting! I understand that the machine running Windows XP experience slow to browse My Network Places/shared folder in peer-to-peer Workgroup Environment. If I have misunderstood your concerns, please feel free to let me know. Before we go further, please help me confirm the following information. 1. Can the issue be reproduced on all the machines running Windows XP in the LAN? 2. Please verify if the issue also occurs when logging to Windows XP with Administrator account not limited user account. Based on my experience, I would like to provide you with the following suggestions: 1. Please ensure you have latest Service Pack and Hotfixes installed. 2. Please disable/uninstall all firewall applications between two machines temporarily. Can the issue be reproduced? 3. Alternatively, you may attempt to open the shared folder via UNC share: \\machine\share. Is it slow? 4. Please enable a policy to disable the auto-creation of the shortcuts per article 242578. 242578 HOW TO: Prevent Network Share Shortcuts from Being Added to My Network http://support.microsoft.com/?id=242578 Hope the information helps. If there is anything unclear, please feel free to let me know. I am glad to be of assistance.

From: TimH on 16 Sep 2005 11:13 Are you using any DNS or WINS resolution or simply relying on the good ol' workgroup functionality ?

I have no idea how to use DNS or WINS. Those settings are untouched. The LAN is set up as workgroup. Please tell me more...
