Hi,

I am interested in gathering together peoples experience on
the subject of file transfer. We have a 2200/433 + DCP 40s.
This hardware runs DDN1100, CMS1100 7r2, along with the
rest of CD5. What I would like to do is improve the efficiency
of our FTP (TCP/IP) file transfers and therefore reduce the
time to transfer our multi-megabyte files. The file transfers
take place each night, down to UNIX hosts.

Has anyone spent time optimizing CMS1100, TCP/IP, LAN Platform,
and DDN1100 for large file transfers. I would be interested in
and configuration definitions that have proven to be useful.
My own line of attack at the moment is to adjust the 2200 to
DCP channel frame size, from its current setting of 2400 bytes.

You comments will be appreciated, if you want me to be more
specific on certain points don't hesitate to ask.
