[pptp-server] Performance difference between TCPIP and SMB traffic

[Tife Chan]

Hi all,

I found that passing SMB traffic through the pptp link is much slower than TCPIP.
I have network A and network B and they are connected together with two linux servers using pptp.
When ftp a file from network A to network B, the speed is fine.
But when I try to copy the same file from network A to network B through Windows Explorer, 
the speed is much much slower.

Any idea?

Thanks.
