In the past, I've installed Samba 3.6 under various versions of FreeBSD, and Windows machines connected and ran about as promptly and briskly as I expected.
This time, after installing 10.2 on 2 very different systems (an A1SRM-2558F with 16GB and inbuilt Intel gigabit NICs, and an older Gigabyte board with a Phenom II 6-cpu chip, 32GB, and an add-on Intel NIC gigabit card), just the connection itself to Samba 3.6 takes a minute or more. Another system, still happily running 9.2, takes the usual instant, so it's not Samba's fault.
Has anyone else experienced this, or am I just lucky?
