Smb performance over vpn is an issue we see periodically at our clients.
Errors transferring mat file by vpn.
When transferring files especially larger files from site1 to site2 server1 the file transfer fails.
I don t think this can be a vpn issue because transferring the same files to site2 server2 which is on the same network as server1 works fine.
The fix for this is some kind of transfer resuming at both the server level and the client level.
I just can t move copy a file from my pc to the network drive.
Get a copy of a remote file to store onto the local machine.
To access volumes and files hosted on a file server one of several available distributed file system protocols must be used.
The file is not open the user has full permissions over the folder and all files i can copy the file move rename delete create again but it just doesn t want to transfer to these 2 specific clients.
If multiple files need to be transferred appropriate file pattern wild cards and may be used with put and get.
I can ping the drive just fine copy from the network drive to my pc create files on the server and delete from the server.
See my comment on the question above.
As a workaround i use teamviewer to send the file to them.
Typically the client profile is that they have multiple sites with site to site vpns and a centralized file server.
As of 2018 the most common protocols are smb cifs default for windows and macos 10 9 or newer afp default for macos prior to 10 9 nfs default for linux and most unix operating system webdav based on http vendor neutral.
Here local means the computer from where you are running the file transfer command or program and the remote computer is the one at the other end of that connection.
I am having an issue copying any file from my pc to a mapped network drive over vpn.
Firewall is off no av uac is off windows 10.
Vpn is prone to network interruptions with large files because it saturates the internet bandwidth and when other vpn clients try to use the vpn tunnel the file transfer will be interrupted.
