Daemons don't make outgoing connections on the whole (they tend to be servers rather than clients), and even if they did, there's simply nothing for it to connect /to/ at the ISP end. Consider an equivalent question, generated from your own by text substitution: > My ISP (site5) doesn't seem to be running A WEB SERVER.
