very_unhappy,

From my experience... it appears that the path of traffic during a copy between Client and server is Server_Folder1 - Client - Server_Folder2...

The progress bar is on the client PC..

/edit: Sorry Nihil.. Started my reply last night..left the PC on overnight.. and posted this morning...

as a disclaimer, I tested this on Win2k3 server to WinXp pro, this is the case with most windows OS I have worked with.. out of curiosity.. I will want to check XP to *Nix server (I assume same as Win-Win), So is *nix_Server to *nix_Client to *Nix_Server any smarter?
