FTP server slow to accept connections

["Jean-Christian Imbeault" <jean_christian@example.com>]

I'm trying to ftp from a win2k box to my RH6.2 machine and the connection 
times out (actually the message is "Connection closed by foreign host").

I've also tried to ftp from the Linux box to itslef. This work but 
establishing the connection is very slow. It takes about 20 seconds.

What's wrong and how can I fix it?

Thanks!
