Hi,
There seems to be a strange problem with the freepascal FTP site, as well as mirrors. I tested both ftp://www.us.freepascal.org and ftp://www.nl.freepascal.org

While I had no trouble downloading from them via a browser, I does not seem to work at all with wget.
Wget connects, CWD's and attempts to RETR, but fails with the error permission denied.

Does anybody know why this could happen ?

I haven't used wget in a while, but it seems like i had to use: wget --passive-ftp
for most ftp sites...

( curl works much better for me )
