Q.
I am having difficulty uploading large files through the NetStorage HTML interface on a NetWare 6 server. The problem is that it's too darn slow. What can I do to speed things up?

Dear Sandy: Greg Leong has provided a solution that will help you with this: Turn off TCP Delayed Acknowledgements. Here's how you do this:
Launch NetWare Remote Manager ( http://dns_or_ip_address:8008 ).
Log in as Admin or equivalent user.
Click the Configure button.
Change View Hidden Set Parameters to Yes.
Select "Set Parameters" in the left pane.
Select the "Communications" link.
Scroll down until you see the "TCP Delayed Acknowledgment" option. The default is On; you should set the value to Off.
That should do it--good luck!
