Samba/two Win2K machines

Hello

I have tried to find solution to my problem for a while but have only found 
solutions to why is Samba on Freebsd between Win2k too slow. Mine wokrs 
fine between win2k and BSD box.

I have freebsd 4.10  and 10MB network. With pentium 300mhz and 128MB memory 
running samba-3.0.5  i´m not very familiar with networking :-) .  Also 2 x 
win2k sp4 machines (1800) and 80gt DMA133 drives. the problem is only when 
i try to transfer files between the win2k machines. about 100mb of stuff 
and win2k tells me that it lasts 25minutes. And it does. The hub collision 
led is most of the time on. I think this should be faster. I´dont know if 
this problem is caused by samba or freebsd at all but i can´t really find 
any info about just this kind of problem or being just stupid or something. 
Everything else works fine.

did also the TCPDUMP stuff  i´dont know if this helps

And so on with that ack value growing?
here is also the smb.conf file...  My friend has configured it for me long 
time ago.. i don´t know how to catch my friend anymore.

add machine script = /usr/local/scripts/smb-add-machine %u
log level = 1
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
read raw = yes
write raw = yes

oplocks = no

max xmit = 65535
dead time = 15

getwd cache = yes
netbios name = Bsdgateway

workgroup = JUHONKATU
server string = FreeBSDMylly

os level = 65

preferred master = yes
domain master = yes
local master = yes
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes

domain logons = yes
timeserver = yes

display charset = ISO8859-15

unix charset = ISO8859-15
wins support=true

wins proxy=yes

dos filetime resolution=yes

interfaces = rl0

[netlogon]
path = /samba/netlogon
read only = yes
write list = @yllapito
browseable = no


and the other things...

So i´m only hoping someone can help me with this problem...

Oh forgot to mention that i have tested the both fullduplex and half-duplex 
settings and that from WIN machines. No luck.  Thank you.
