In 12 years on the Internet, I have never heard about a protocol called
FSP.

The owls, they are not what they seem ...
It is very common these days for routers to set up packet filters
that differentiate between FTP and TELNET. Many sites do not allow ANY
incoming TELNET traffic. The hosts that are unreachable by TELNET but
can be reached by FTP, are they hosts that you have been explicitly
authorized to TELNET to ? Do you have (legal) accounts on them ?

In general it is considered to be extremely rude to be too busy to read
the replies to your own postings ... You may not have time to read all
the news every day, but you should set aside time to read the groups to
which you are posting ...
