Ahh - finally someone who responds with the same BS as when a Windows user 
posted similar FTP problems recently.  FTP to one VMS box was slow but to 
another VMS box it was fast.  The response then was don't use Windows - use 
any other OS.  This sounds like there is a misconfiguration on the slow VMS 
box.
