There could be a firewall in the way, on your end or on theirs. Or the FTP server could just have this feature disabled, though to be honest I'm not sure what it means (something about using a different tcp/ip port? % curl --help | grep PORT -P/--ftpport <address> Use PORT with address instead of PASV when ftping (F) When using the default of curl for downloading packages, I got this error a lot. Grabbing the same url with wget almost always got past this: % wget ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/bzip2/v102/bzip2-1.0.2.tar.gz On the other hand, wget gets snagged on other things, so it's not like it's necessarily better. In the end, having both tools available helps. -- Chris Devers [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apache / mod_perl / http://homepage.mac.com/chdevers/resume/ "More war soon.
