Is it possible to set the read/write window size in PC-NFS 3.5 to a fixed number. I want to talk to SOSS. If it is possible how do you do it. Ian McLeod CSIRO TCP

Quoth ianm@biobris.biom.csiro.au (Ian McLeod) (in <506@biobris.biom.csiro.au>): #Is it possible to set the read/write window size in PC-NFS 3.5 to a #fixed number. I want to talk to SOSS. With the latest SOSS this becomes a non-issue: SOSS supports 1K reads/readdirs/ writes, and advertises the correct TSIZE which PC-NFS honours. As for the more general issue of PC-NFS read/write tuning, the read size is fixed at 1K for the forseeable future. We've made patches to the write size available for folks whose server advertises an unusable TSIZE or who are running over long haul/lossy links. Fixing this area is a high priority for future PC-NFS releases. [Usual disclaimers, etc.] Geoff -- Geoff Arnold, PC-NFS architect, Sun Microsystems.
