+1.
The non-inetutils 'ftp' tool installed on my old debian etch machine
have the parameters below.
Usage: { ftp | pftp } [-pinegvtd] [hostname]
-p: enable passive mode (default for pftp)
-i: turn off prompting during mget
-n: inhibit auto-login
-e: disable readline support, if present
-g: disable filename globbing
-v: verbose mode
-t: enable packet tracing [nonfunctional]
-d: enable debugging
