Nope...Cobalt tells us that FP2002 extensions ain't(don't/can't/won't) the
thing to do, since they don't work that well(or at all).

A better question might be.....
Can these things for Linux be found?

see above.

Not sure how you could spend so much and get so little...the little blue
washing machines have http, mail and ftp running out of the box(but you
should/must upgrade them.)

Posts on the developer list seem to indicate that you can use FP2002 with
the FP2000 extensions....as long as you don't attempt to use the new
FP2002 features.

Mayhaps your boss needs to(shudder)
learn html
or
don't muck with what he/she doesn't understand
(having been a boss, that may be easier said then done).
