Hi,

When trying to mirror an ftp server via an ftp proxy (set in the ftp_proxy
environment variable), recursion breaks.

The following command should in theory download an "index.html" from the
ftp proxy and parse it, downloading all links. In reality only index.html
is downloaded.

wget -r -N --no-parent
ftp://ftp.is.co.za/mirror/a.redhat.com/linux/core/3/i386/os/Fedora/base/

This renders wget useless as a mirror program if you're stuck behind a proxy.

Regards,
Graham
