If your card support full duplex then modify the speed settings on both the side.

Re: How to Speed up FTP between PC (win2k) and HP-UX 10.20
there are no parameters to change for ftp
better yet, get GigE cards for both and use a dedicated crossover cable to connect them

One other thing to watch out for is anti-virus software on the PC server. If this is configured to scan files on write, it can double the length of time taken to FTP files from the unix server.

Re: How to Speed up FTP between PC (win2k) and HP-UX 10.20
The first thing that I would do is determine what the transfer rate is. FTP about a 10MB file and measure the throughput? Is it reasonable for your network hardware? If the transfer rate is much lower than expected then you almost certainly have a duplex mismatch.
I would also look into using the Perl Net::FTP package. It can make the transfer process easy and do error checking on each transfer -- and yes, Perl is available for free on PC's. The other software 'fix' is to determine if you really need to send this much data. You might actually only need to send the files that have changed. Search for Perl and FTP and you should find several examples on this Forum.

Re: How to Speed up FTP between PC (win2k) and HP-UX 10.20
ftp -i w:65536 hphost
The -i flag allows transfer of multiple file using mput without the pesky response request.
We use this and get pretty good transfer rates between Windows and HP box...
Other option for ftp (on the windows side) can be found by typing the ftp command with bad parameters in a DOS windows. The windows help for the ftp command is sorely lacking.

Re: How to Speed up FTP between PC (win2k) and HP-UX 10.20
Lets look at some basic working, and what was done.
When a client and server talk, there is an initial network packet sent to see if the server is available from the client. (true when any 2 machines talk, but I'll use client server for clarity).
Upon receipt, the server sends back an ACK packet, to let the client know it's there, so talk away.
This standard has been around as long as TCP/IP.
This is where we see how M$ thinks...
With NT4, M$ started having clients listen for 2 ACKs from the server, and had their servers send 2ACK back to clients.
If only 1 ACK was received by either side, then the host was considered to be on a crippled network, and given 1/2 bandwidth.
Of course this makes everyone but NT look slow on the network. For the first time, M$ could say it was better at networking with their crappy IP stack than anyone else.
This behavior was noted withing a couple months release of NT. The controlling body for TCP/IP standards was basically told to screw themselves by M$, and they M$ has stuck to this standard.
SunOS, Linux, and AIX all changed their IP stack to accept and send 2 ACKS, but dont treat anyone sending 1 ACK back as crippled. The second ACK sent to servers is usually ignored.
Now, I do not know if HP or Irix also modified it's IP stacks to do something similar.
In 100baseT networks, this is not nearly as noticable as it is in 10BaseT or BNC networks.
