The only thing is that I never set up an >ftp service. Does fbsd install ftp by default? I think so, yes. Usually, it is auomatically launched by inetd if it detects a request on FTP's dedicated port. >How can >I tell if it's actually my machine I'm hitting and not >my isp's by some misconfiguration?

Locally put a recognizable file into the FTP space on the FBSD machine, and check it out on your FTP client side? e.g. a text file with the date+time and your name in it. -- Bart.
