Transoft, Ltd. also uses TSR for Transoft Software Report or something like
that (bug reports etc.). This overloading is not much of a problem ...

Come to think of it, TSR is the trademark of that D&D company, too.

Sorry about that, not sure what happened. Anyway, how do I access these
FTP sites?

(What appears to have happened is that you hit your cursor-left key
a few times to get to an early point in your line of typing. You'll
have better luck using your "backspace" key instead.)

I guess nobody's answered gibber's question. Jamie, you need
to be a member of the Grex cooperative to access ftp from Grex.
"finger danr" for more info.

FSP is another file transfer protocol. It is actually file stealing protocol.
With it you don't have to log in to a site. It only actually connets when you
send a command and then it disconnects. I THINK that is about right.

I think you can use to FSP to connect to other ports as well.
(you're not stuck to the ftp ports)

Is there a client for FSP around somewhere (downloadable)?

#30 makes it sound a lot like gopher protocol.

That's how ftp works - with a client.

Ummm. Actually I didn't think that was true. I think the two programs
continually handshake over the ftp session. I'm no expert on ftp protocol,
though.

I'm even less of an expert! I'm distinguishing ftping from a telnet
session, where you have to start ftp on the server, and from a client,
where they are no line commands (that one sees). Apparently the telnet
session takes more bandwidth than the client. I recall an archie
server telling me that they were planning on locking out archie via
telnet, and to require client use. But this (fsp?) sounds like taking
it a step further, if you know *exactly* where the file is.

Well, I am new to this system and very tired but I would like to explain
a little how I think of "cllient-server" (telnet ftp, fsp and so on)
There is Always a server involved in ftp,telnet and fsp.
Therefore you need a client. The protocols are the same up to a certain
level. They all use IP and TCP.
The higher level protocols differ alot.
Telnet just opens a TCP-connection to port 23 on the servermachine.
the server starts a login to that port and thats it.
Ftp is a lot more complicated. If you want to see just what it's about
then telnet to port 21 and type help.
I havn't experimented with fsp alot since it cant be used for
anything practical. I don't know what the advantage would be.
Anyway it seems to connect to a port and use that for both commands and
data(ftp has separate ports)
I see no point in using fsp however since most of the stuff available
is Illegal!
Hope this inspires you to find out more. (man ftpd, ftp, telnet, telnetd
is a good start)

Thanks, Lars. Also welcome to Grex. (And what, if I may ask, is Floorball?
(Just out of curiosity.))

I am looking for examples of Internet use (especially other than e-mail)
by state and local government agencies. I am with the Iowa Department
of Public Safety and we are connected for e-mail, ftp, and telnet access,
but other Iowa state agencies are not. Consideration is being given to
wider accessibility, and examples of use by state agencies (or local)
other than, of course, universities, would be helpful.
I am aware og the Window on Texas State State Government (telnet window.
texas.gov) (Sorry - aware of - I can't figure out how to get back to
the previous line to edit my misspelling.) and also have heard of a few
other states whose executive branch agencies are using Internet, but I
have little specific information about these. Thanks.

Re #40: Michael, probably one of the best known government efforts
in the use of the internet is the Library of Congress Gopher server.
It can be found at this URL: "gopher://marvel.loc.gov/"
A list of federal government information servers can be found by browsing
URL: "http://www.doc.gov/services/index.html"
State and local governments aren't as far along, but it's encouraging
to see some interest.
You can view these from grex by using our www browser, lynx, but only
if you are a member. My guess is that from your site at ia.gov you
can browse more effectively using Mosaic.
