Did you have any problems when you went to the Library of Congress site? How 
did you like it?

FTP protocols allow you to request specific files from remote computers, but 
not to actually be logged on as a user of that computer. With Telnet, you log 
on as a regular user with whatever privileges you may have been granted to the 
specific application and data on that computer.

  I was able to connect to the Library of Congress Information System( 
telnet://140.147.254.3 ). 
  
information on telnet can be found at -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telnet
