The network between a HP client and a SUN server was recently changed from ATM 
to GB ethernet.

Since that conversion the rate of transfer  for the backups has become 
ridiculously slow.

We have yet to prove that the change of network topology is the cause though  
it is the obvious place to start.

Can anyone offer any suggestions how to check if the IP config on HP  is tuned 
for ATM and what would the appropriate settings for ethernet.

The HP box is a HP 9000 K class

Thanks
