"portscan" in that last one is a symlink into the nugget at the center of
OSX's Network Utility.app:
/Applications/Utilities/Network Utility.app/Contents/Resources/stroke
But CLI accessible this way.
So anyway, it's ping-able, and the ftp port is nominally open, but an
attempt to actually connect just sits there.
Do you specifically need to get in via FTP for some reason?
