We are trying to set up HP3000 to HP3000 communication via NS and FTP.  The
traffic is going through a firewall.  We have it working, but the speed is
too slow.  We  are getting 2 to 3 Mbps throughput on HP transfers.  PC to PC
transfers through the firewall are 22 Mbps.  I checked that the LAN switch
port on the 3000 is set to 100 - Full duplex.  

I am being asked what are the packet sizes or MTU on the HP3000.  Can anyone
help me answer or show me where to find and set the packet size?

Here is the information from NMMGR...
