Please run 'ipconfig /all' from both the server and a workstation and post
results back here.

Did somebody knows a solution for this ?

Small network 2003SBS (Xeon/2GB/160G raid1) + 6 PC's
PC's are XP Pro, logged on to the domain.
Network traffic is rather slow (100Mb and hub instead of switch) but it's
ok (copy 135MB in 60 sec - 2.3kByte/s).
No DNS problems. Everything works normal. Nothing special in the event
logs.
Antivirus Symantec Corporate Edition disabled to be sure.

Only problem : Opening Excel files on the SBS share is slow, saving is
very slow.

Examples :
file of 50kB : +/- 3 seconds
file of 1.5MB : opening 10 sec and saving 35 sec

When opening the files locally on the PC's : no delay !

Before they had a Linux (Mandrake) server with the same PC's, hubs and
cabling and this problem was not there.

Seems w2003SBS is checking something in the excel files and times out ...

Thanks for reactions !
