i had a similar situation, turned out my ethernet card was set to 100 full,
but the switch port was autodetect. Setting the card to also be autodetect
fixed it. check both the server and pc and make sure the cards agree with
the switch ports.

Subject: ftp speed

I have a strange problem. We have a pSeries RS6000 running AIX 5.1.
Ftp works fine between this box and any other RS6000. However, when you
ftp from a PC using dos or any other form of ftp, it does the ftp but
takes way too long. When ftping from the RS6000 to that same PC, it
works as quickly as one would expect. I'm talking significant times.
For instance:

        PC to RS6000 transfer of 1004750 bytes takes 59.1 seconds
        RS6000 to PC transfer of 1004750 bytes takes 1.2 seconds

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. TIA.
