    $> telnet 127.0.0.1 21
    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    Connected to localhost.novel.ru.
    Escape character is '^]'.
    220 wzd server ready.
    USER guest
    331 User guest okay, need password.
    PASS any
    230 User logged in, proceed.
    PORT
    Connection closed by foreign host.
    $> telnet 127.0.0.1 21
    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
