Hello,

current wget seems to have the following bug in the ftp retrieval code:

When called like:
wget user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/foo/bar/file.tgz

and foo or bar is a read/execute protected directory while file.tgz is user-readable, wget fails to retrieve the file because it tries to CWD into the directory first.

I think the correct behaviour should be not to CWD into the directory but to issue a GET request with the full path instead ( which will succeed ).

Best regards,

Arne Caspari
