We are having slow network traffic on all xp-clients in our network. (2dc
w2k3 - 1 exchange server - > 125 clients all windows xp pro sp 2).
The 4 vista clients do not have this problem.
We have tested the network speed between 2 remote locations (fiber
connection) and the speed is about 95 Mbps.

Anyone any idea ?

Hi
You did not provided any technical data concerning the Network Hardware, and
what is the Speed expectation.
If the computers have 100Mb/sec. Network Card then 95Mb/sec. is excellent
"Speed".

The speed is excellent. The computers have 100 Mb/sec NICs.
The problem is that if they open shared files on the File and Print server
it takes extremely long to open it. (app. 30" for a 5 MB file).
