Your connection is fine.

I doubt that the laptop will (by default) run either telnet or ssh as they both suck resources...
I would avoid trying to use ssh as the computing power required to encrypt the stream / password login session might be a bit too much of a burden for the little laptop...

You must have these server daemons running (look at your rc. scripts on the big machine for that side, can't speak for small-linux); there is nothing _to_ connect to right now.

FTP messages are presented in two forms on the same line, the number for direct machine reading (if you want to know what the numbers stand for, search for the ftp rfc (request for comments) with google). The rest of the line is the english version.

There's really no need to use something so powerful
Try a
nc -lp 8000 -e /bin/sh
on one side, and then
nc above.machine 8000
And see if it works. This is how the rustified mulinux telnet daemon runs.
A full telnet daemon (runnable from inetd) is on the SRV addon I seem to remember.
But on such a low powered & secure setup, nc is your friend :-)
