6 Please provide more details. What filesystem does the server use
7 (ext2/3, reiserfs, jfs, xfs, ...)? Are you using nfs, shfs, afs,
8 smbfs, ...? What are the hardware specs for the server? How much RAM?
9 How fast is it? What about the client specs? Is the client running
10 Linux too? Is the client that uploads the 600MB file the same one that
11 is attempting to play the music? What is the network like? 100Mbps
12 ethernet? Are the client and server on the same subnet? Same hub or
13 switch? How many other computers are using the network? What music
14 player are you using?
