No, my point was that wget should retry here at this point.

What i meant was, that Bulletproof ftpd perhaps sends its commands in a 
non-conformal way, and thus wget is "confused". Don't ask me about the 
official rules of ftp-commands when setting up a connection, but perhaps 
it's wrong to ask wget about the password, instead of saying "too many 
users" just after the username has been posted.

If so, perhaps wget could be rewritten in that way, that it retries also 
when retrieving this commands of bulletftpd?

That was exactly was i meant, sorry if my first post was misleading.
In my opinion it should retry, and it usually does with other ftpds (e.g. 
Serv-U Win32, just to name one).

The main difference in the sent ftp commands with bulletproof ftpd is that 
wget has to send user AND pass, whereas with other ftpds, where wget 
behaves correclty, only the username is sent, and immediately the response 
"too many users" is received.

I think his point is that Wget should retry.  And there he is right --
Wget's FTP code was meant to retry in such cases, but it doesn't
always work.

That's it. You are logged in more times than that you are allowed to.
Seems clear to me.

We can easily verify that: In the moment when your wget session fails,
just try a normal FTP session (possibly without any proxies inbetween as
this may cause additional problems). If, after your login, the FTP
session fails as well, it's the Bulletproof FTPd. Otherwise it may be
some problem in wget (although I personally doubt it). In such a case
please send us a complete log of that "normal" FTP session with "set
debug on" so that we can compare what is going wrong.

Problems with wget <-> Bulletproof ftpd (Win32)

2001-06-10 Thread Dings-Da

Hey,

I got a question on Wget's behaviour with Windows-based Bulletproof FTPd. 
Though i am aware that wget had some problems with Windows-based ftp 
servers, which were quite often discussed here in the mailing list, i tried 
out the latest wget-version v1.7 (not dev!) and encountered the following:


When starting the command (both on linux and solaris8-systems - with and 
without firewalls):

wget --passive-ftp --wait=70 --waitretry=61 -t0 -c -r -np -nd -N -d 
ftp://:@:1//

(also happens when leaving out --passive-ftp/-c/-r/-N/-np/-nd)

--Output start-
DEBUG output created by Wget 1.7 on linux-gnu.

parseurl ("ftp://:@:1//") -> host
newpath: //

--05:20:41--  ftp://:@:1//
=> `.listing'
Verbindungsaufbau zu :1... Created fd 4.

331 Password required for .

--> PASS 

421 Too many users logged for this account. Try again later.

Fehler bei der Anmeldung.
Closing fd 4
unlink: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

BEENDET --05:20:42--
Geholt: 0 Bytes in 0 Dateien
--Output end-

Is this a known issue? Perhaps it's more a wrong behaviour of Bulletproof 
instead of wget, but since i'm not sure about that, i decided to post it 
here :)

Sorry about the german debug-text, but most of it should be self-explantory :)
BTW, sometimes the debug list "fd3" instead of "fd4"
