	Does the MacTCP implementation of NCSA telnet offer any improvement
	of the FTP speed over the NCSA tcp/ip implementation?



Yes, it does.  MacTCP approximately doubles the transfer rate under
MultiFinder because it steals more time from MF than the 
NCSA TCP/IP does.  Under Finder, the transfer speed becomes limited by
the SCSI disk drive so you won't notice so much difference.  The SCSI
drive buffering we use limits to 60-80KB/sec.
