No. It's an oddball FTP server that accepts the command "RETR /apnic/whois-data/APNIC/apnic.RPSL.db.gz" but rejects "CWD /apnic/whois-data/APNIC". Upstream, why does wget do CWD and RETR when just a RETR with the full pathname would suffice? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
