ssh-keygen is a command that comes along with your SSH client in
Debian (and all other UNIX-like systems that supply OpenSSH).

That sounds like your DSL company decided to block port 22,
which is somewhere between ridiculous and evil.
(21 is FTP, by the way.)
1. Reboot your DSL modem and/or router just in case.
2. Test that you still can't ssh to server:22
3. Test that you can't connect via ssh to chat.shazow.net (it
will allow anyone on, no credentials)
4. Complain to your DSL company.
