[SunHELP] Slow ftp session

[Tam, Thomas]

Hi Joe,

I did following the suggestion to configure the following in the /etc/system
and also the Etherswitch manually configure as 100 full duplex.

>set hme:hme_adv_autoneg_cap=0

>set hme:hme_adv_100hdx_cap=0
>set hme:hme_adv_10fdx_cap=0
>set hme:hme_adv_10hdx_cap=0

Thanks,
