Hi,

I finally solved the problem. After reading Chau Chee Yang message
about the Domain Controller issue on Win2003. I googled it
and 'TcpAckFrequency' came up. I added the new value 'TcpAckFrequency'
to the registry and have set it to 1. After reboot our Win2003 2.4 Ghz
machine finally outperforms my slow Win2000 900 Mhz.

Greetings,
Filip Moons
