Hello folks,
I've installed Tru64 5.0A on my AlphaServer 400 (EV4.5, 21064, 233 MHz) with a DEC Tulip 21040 network adapter installed.
After the installation I encountered very low network performance, the maximum throughput is arround 20 kbyte/sec (tested using ftp as well as SMB).
Other workstations in this network segment work fine with 200-500 kbyte/sec (its a 10 MBit/s network).
Where can I look for configuration errors? How can I fine tune the settings?
Previosly installed was Digital Unix 4.0b without any problems.
