HP UX Internet and Networking Software manual Sets the read buffer size in bytes for MS Windows

NET.CFG Options Reference

NetWare DOS Requester Option

If you are using any application that uses the “netx=off” command, such as Microsoft Office, ensure that this parameter value is set to “on.”

PB BUFFERS=number

Controls the use of the Packet Burst protocol for file input/output.

Packet Burst is automatically enabled in the NetWare DOS Requester software.

The values are as follows:

0 = off

nonzero = on and increases the number of buffers.

Setting this option to 0 decreases memory use and, in some cases, performance.

Syntax	pb buffers=number
Default	3
Range	0 to 10
Modules	FIO.VLM, IPXNCP.VLM
Example	To disable Packet Burst, you would place the following lines
	in your NET.CFG file:
	netware dos requester
	pb buffers=0

PBURST READ WINDOWS SIZE=number

Sets the read buffer size (in bytes) for MS Windows.

Syntax	pburst read windows size=number
Default	16
Range	3 to 128
Modules	FIO.VLM
