But should the differences be that large?  I have another client that
will ftp to the Veritas server at 15,000KB/s but the Veritas backup is
1000KB/s.  

Thanks,

You shouldn't expect that.  Different methods of file access and
transfer have different overheads.  For example, download a large FTP
file from an off-network location using Internet Explorer and then
download the same file using a standard FTP client like WS_FTP.  You'll
usually see a marked difference.  Another comparison is to copy a very
large file between Windows machines using copy/paste from the GUI and
then copy the same file using a utility like robocopy.  Windows file
handling is notoriously inefficient and slow.

If I can transfer a file using FTP from my Veritas server to a client at
5000 KB/s should I get better than the 1200KB/s throughput I get from
NetBackup for my backups from that client?
