  Radial velocities of 468 globular clusters around NGC 1399, the central
galaxy in the Fornax cluster, have been obtained with FORS2 and the Mask
Exchange Unit (MXU) at the ESO Very Large Telescope. This is the largest sample
of globular cluster velocities around any galaxy obtained so far. The mean
velocity uncertainty is 50 km/sec. This data sample is accurate and large
enough to be used in studies of the mass distribution of NGC 1399 and the
properties of its globular cluster system. Here we describe the observations,
the reduction procedure, and discuss the uncertainties of the resulting
velocities. The complete sample of cluster velocities which is used in a
dynamical study of NGC 1399 is tabulated. A subsample is compared with
previously published values.
