Paul,

I've forwarded this along to the developer to get his ideas.  It would
appear that there is some network issue causing this.  The backup time looks
good, obviously.  When we start to troubleshoot something like this we'll
try a bi-directional ftp of a file.  There might be some strange routing in
your IP network.  While we wait for a response, can you try an ftp from the
TSM server to the OpenVMS system and see what kind of time you get?  Try it
the other way around and compare.  Obviously, the times should be close to
the same.  Choose a reasonably large file for the test.

Thanks,
