Mark– I don't think that the problem is in the case-checking for file names. I did a dir (on the PC side) of the directory that was receiving the files. It appeared as though the date/time stamp for the file was being updated every time a block was written to disk. In addition, it was also doing some sort of seek on every disk connected to the SCSI bus. It doesn't make any difference if I try to copy a file from an NFS SCSI partition to another NFS SCSI partition. That's dog slow too. It also doesn't make a diff if it is to a FAT or HPFS partition. I am going to try to write the files to my c: drive, which is IDE, to see if that makes a difference. But first, I have to change the \tcpip\etc\hosts file. Maybe I'll try that later this week. Oh, if you want to send an esc, try ctrl-[ (often shown as ^[). I got that info from my OS/2 TCP/IP manual. BTW, the Quick Reference Guide for TCP/IP for OS/2 is larger than the entire Amiga TCP/IP manual. BobS
