Very slow fp

On our network (win2000 pro) we currently use filepro 4.05.  The filepro 
directory resides on one of the servers on the D: drive in a shared folder 
called filepro.  Yes there is a folder d:\filepro\filepro. The workstations 
have their own fp directory witha mapped drive to the D:\filepro on the 
server.  All works great and has for years.

Problem, I needed to set up so I could run fp directly on the server at 
times.  So I created the following batch file....
set PFNET=ON
set PFSYNC=ON
set PFDSK=D
set PFPROG=D:
set PFDATA=D:
set PFDIR=/filepro
set PFCMARK=80
set PFRETRY=20
p dbs
cd\
cls

Although this works it is gawd awful slow.  Any thoughts as to what is 
wrong.

BTW, yes we have fp network version 5.0.13 and have just purchased fpODBC 
but have not had time to install the 5.0.13 yet.

Thank you,
Rick Hane
