Re: [Networker] windows backup goes slow and fails

Many thanks to all those fine folks that pointed out the link speed and
configuartion issue,
but -alas- this is not the case. Also, this is a very small save set so this
shouldn't
present much trouble. At what magnitude scale does the file count starts to
present trouble?
Also, I have temporarily disabled the virus scanners and firewalls to try to
isolate the
problem but there was no difference.
Cheers,
Athanasios
