Machine A : OS 9.1 (no firewire)
Machine B : OS X 10.2.4 + External FireWire Drive

Machine A was up the creek and needed some data copied off before it was wiped an reinstalled.

I copied about 6Gb of data in less than an hour via the 100 base ethernet network to the FireWire drive.

Machine A has be reformatted and reinstalled so its time for the data to go back.

Connecting either way (A to B or B to A) indicates a copy time of around 8-9 hours (even after waiting a while) - the transfer rate is a fraction of the original.

What is the cause of this? (Connect via TCP/IP is enabaled as I believe it was on the old install.)

Cheers, Antony.
