ftp recursive behind a proxy

2004-11-10 Thread Jesus Villalba
Dear Sir or madam,
I've noticed that the following scenario does not work as I expected:
My client (wget) is behind a ftp-proxy and I try to download recursive 
from a ftp server (anyone) with the following command:

wget --follow-ftp -r -l 2 -p -k ftp://ftp-server
in wgetrc I have the following entry:
ftp_proxy = http://ftp-proxy:3128/
The result ist that wget don't follow the links of the index.html file 
sent by the proxy and only receive the index.html file. I works properly 
(recursive) when I call wget without proxy, i.e as above with the option 
--proxy=off.

I've been searching wget options that maybe avoid this problem, but 
without success.

Thaks a lot for your attention,
Greetings,
Jesus Villalba

yes, this is a known bug which will be fixed in the next release of wget.

Hi Jesus,

I have encountered the same problem than you.
See here :
http://www.mail-archive.com/wget%40sunsite.dk/msg06752.html

No-one has yet replied.
Seems to me it is a bug. or at least, this behavior should be customizable.

Ring me back if you have any news !


Best Regards,

Andrew.
