Hi Brjorn,
Perhaps you're way ahead of me here, but out of curiosity I will ask:
What is the best performance you get between those two
machines.
Something like
scp largefile [EMAIL PROTECTED]:path
will give you a some kind of baseline rate to compare with.
What I am asking is are you sure you have isolated the problem to
proftpd alonge, or is this something to do with these two machines
(like a seriously slow disk, driver, some reason that one card has
negotiated 10 Mbps, a slow FTP proxy between them)?
I no longer run a ftp daemon, so I can't offer much more
assistance. The only thing I can think is to turn of UseReverseDNS and
IdentLookups in the config file, but from memory that only affects the
connect time and not the transfer rate.
Cheers!
Shyamal
