+ + FSP - &fsp; FAQ + + Sven + "Hoaxter" + Hoexter + + + + + + This document is a major rewrite of the old + FSP FAQ. + I started with this FAQ from scratch cause nearly all parts of the old FAQ where outdated.

In general FSP is what anonymous ftp should be, a fast and bandwith friendly + way to access publicly avaible data. FSP is UDP based so it doesn't have all the protocol overhead you've with TCP + based transfer protocols. You can find the latest protocol definition right here + http://fsp.sourceforge.net/doc/PROTOCOL.txt + or in the source distribution in the "doc" subdirectory. + + + + In the past various people maintained the FSP code base. At the moment Radim Kolar hsn@cybermail.net-nospam + is maintaining FSP. If you like to get involved take a look at the FSP + Homepage and the + FSP project page. + + + + + Why and for what should I use FSP? + + The &fsp; has its strengths on slow lines and connections with a high package lose like a Wireless LAN. In general the &fsp; is + what anonymous FTP should be - a fast and bandwith friendly way for anonymous file access. + + + + + Where can I download FSP? + + You can Download the FSP source Distribtuion from the + sf.net mirror network + or from + ibblio. + + + + + Where can I find help? + + RTFM - Read the fine Manuals + + FIXME + Various people took the time to write nice documents on fsp releated issue.
