Paulo, thanks for the thoughts, however, that doesn't make a whole lot 
of sense (although I see why you are saying that), because in this case 
I have several fileservers on the same gigabit switches as this 
fileserver, and clients can transfer data quickly between all, in both 
directions, all the time, except data being sent TO this one host.  I've 
even tried machines that are idle, on the same switch as this server, 
and I still receive slow transfers.

Eric
