Server push to or pull from Win7 is fine - its when pushing files from Win7 to Server where things slow down. So imagine this: Log on to Server as admin, map a Win7 folder share as R:, copy from remote R: to local D:, things go fast. Note data is "pulled" from from Win7 to Server. Now, log on to Win7 as admin. Map a server share on D: as R:, copy from local D: to remote R:, things are very slow. Note data is being "pushed" from Win7 to Server. So same network, same drivers, same everything... yet different results.

Hello, It may be because of Server and win7 machine have different HW/SW configurations. >>When "Log on to Server as admin, map a Win7 folder share as R:, copy from remote R: to local D:, things go fast. Note data is "pulled" from from Win7 to Server", Server utilizes its hardware (like RAM, processor etc) obviously its fast because of server performance >>When "log on to Win7 as admin. Map a server share on D: as R:, copy from local D: to remote R:, things are very slow. Note data is being "pushed" from Win7 to Server", Win7 machine utilizes its hardware, so it can be slow as compare to data is pulling from server. Regards, Ravikumar P
