X-Reportbug-Version: 1.36
X-Mailer: reportbug 1.36
Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2001 23:09:30 -0600

Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Package: boot-floppies
Version: 3.0.17; reported 2001-12-12
Severity: important
If I'm reading net-fetch.c correctly, its call to 'wget' doesn't use passive
ftp. This will fail for people behind many firewalls.
Shouldn't it use --passive-ftp by default? AFAIK, turning it on should
(virtually) never cause a problem, and will be a lot better on balance.

Anyhow, it's irrelevant. Since busybox wget doens't support this
argument, the user's request to use this argument is hereby denied.
:)
Bug submitter, if busybox wget is not using ftp in the right way,
please file a bug on busybox, not on the boot-floppies. Thanks.
