Yes, this has been an ongoing problem in wget (but it should be fixed now at least in CVS if not in 1.7), but I cannot reproduce it with wget 1.7 and the URL provided (so that's likely 1.7). $ wget -d --passive-ftp -c ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/dist/superrescue/v2/superrescue-2.0.0a.iso.gz DEBUG output created by Wget 1.7 on cygwin. <snip/> 200 PORT command successful. done. ==> REST 316224 ... --> REST 316224 350 Restarting at 316224.
