Title: Possible FTP timeouts from MS boxes

All,

I am having an issue where I am FTPing a large number of small files from an NT to a Solaris box in the DMZ.  The firewall is allowing the data through but for some reason the connection gets closed prematurely ending the FTP before all the files are transferred. 

I had recently moved the solaris box from an old firewall (3.0b) to a new firewall (4.1).  The problem didnt appear until after the move.

To make matters worse, I have tested it on a few windows boxes and they all seem to have the same problem...and...I have tested it on a a few unix boxes and they work without a problem.

I have spoken with some people who mumble stuff about MS and the IP stack during FTP, but I have never heard anything about that. 

Has anyone seen this kind of problem before or anything like it?

Thanks

MCross
