SIMTEL20 has a limited number of net ports available for FTP jobs.
Lately we've seen very heavy FTP usage.  When insufficient net ports
are available you will get a message that says the FTP connection was
refused.  It's possible that your host's FTP may display "Service
Unavailable" when that happens.

Because of the very high demand for anonymous FTP services it became
necessary to limit the maxiumum number of those jobs in order to
preserve reasonable response time for our *paying* users.  If you get
a message that says there are too many anonymous ftp jobs, just keep
trying, as you would for a busy phone number.
