# fspscan(1)

## NAME

fspscan is a small tool to scan host for a running fsp server

## SYNOPSIS

**fspscan** \[-t\]\[-o file\]\[-r retries\]\[-l local port\]\[-i ip address\]\[-p starting port\]\[-h\]\[-e endport\]

## DESCRIPTION

fspscan is small tool to scan for a running fsp server on a remote host. When it  detects a running server it will display the server version and the port.

## ARGUMENTS

**-t** -- trace (on\|off), default is off

**-o** -- file, define a file for the output, default is stdout

**-r** -- retries, define the number of probes bevor we skip this port and continue with the next one, default is 3

**-l** -- local port, define the local port number we use for scaning, default is 9191

**-i** -- ip address, define the ip address or hostname of the host you would like to scan

**-p** -- starting port, define the port number where we start to scan, default is 21

**-e** -- ending port, define the port number where we stop to scan, default is 65535

**-h** -- help, print out a short help and the default values

## BUGS

fspscan is not fastest scanning tool on the earth. This program is known in the wild as FSP exploit. Detection can be avoided by disabling CC\_VERSION command on server side.

## HISTORY

This program was written in late 1992 by Cuda and quickly becomes must have tool for every FSP fan. In September 2003 it was adapted to modern C compilers and added to FSP suite by Radim Kolar. Because most value of this program is purely historic, fixes and feature enhancements of this program are kept at minimal amount.
