Hi

The way I did it (and still do it):

Download from Aminet:
AmiTCP (ver 2.3 or 3.0b)
driver for the NIC (I use 3c589.device)
smbfs.lha

All in sizes acceptable for floppies.

smbfs - I also have I/O errors, but starting it over and over again helps... :-) Nothing to configure, all information to be specified as parameters on startup (I use: user, password, service, domain).
It seems to be not perfect as I observed it misses the files, when specified with template, also I experienced system crashes, while working with it. But I use it mainly in the way:
Force it to work
Copy localy to Amiga disk
Reboot

It is enough for this job.

BTW: to connect from Amiga to PC I use single RJ-45 crossed cable (no switch or hub needed).

Good luck
