I have searched the archives and found nothing other than I have tried
already. I want to increase the TCP window size on an ftp server. I have
on sender and receiver, both Tru64:
inet:
tcp_recvspace=122880
tcp_sendspace=122880
Using tcpdump to monitor the connection the receivers window size is
65536 as is the senders. However if I connect from a Linux system the
Tru64 server advertises a window size of 122880 and the Linux system
window size is very small indeed. On Linux I am using lftp and ftp on
Tru64. The ftp data transfer rate over a WAN is a lot higher using a
Linux client than the Tru64 client, I have backed off Tru64 transfer
rate using 'netstat -limit' to reduce resends now I am looking at window
size.
I cannot understand why the difference in TCP window size when
connectiong for Linux and Tru64, could anyone shed any light?
Thanks and regards
