The information is not really enough to give an honest answer;
However, keep this in mind - Your link from the AS/400 to the
server should be running at least on a switch, not a hub of
100Mb (or 1Gb depending on your model) (reason is a switch gives
full speed, a hub shares the pipeline, thus other IP activity
will slow your ftp)  Your "problem" could be that the other PC
has more pipeline to work with going outside than the AS/400 is
being given - it all comes down to proper planning of your network
set-up, with those "techys" knowing what kind of traffic you have
and what kind you are planning on.  Get with your network person
to track and monitor the IP traffic to see where the bottle neck is,
I do know it is more hub/switch related than AS/400 or PC related.

Subject: ftp from 400


We send some fairly large files using ftp--several million records, 144 byte
record length.  It seems to take about three times as long to send them
directly from the 400 as it does to ftp them from the 400 to a pc on our
network and then ftp them from there to the final recipient.

The 400 is behind the same firewall as the pcs.  Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
