This only means that I had no imagination naming the computer and simply
used the name of the cpu manufacturer used in the computer.

This works OK.

The only new thing is.
0000:00:0e.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (rev 11)
And the driver is sk98lin compiled into the kernel. 

Everything else has been the same for over a year. hmm I did change the
switch also but I do not remember what I got. 

I do not get any problem reading with a osx client also in gigabit speed
but the client cpu is much slower so it's not exactly the same thing.

Telnet to the server run the gen part then run the cmp on the client. And yes I do delete the files otherwise they would more or less only be in the cache.
