Curt, trying to do the home work of others, here is an hint : I use SmartFTP that tries to queue downloads. Here is the log of the download session :
[07:58:38] Resolving host name "ftp.flightgear.org" [07:58:38] Connecting to 128.101.141.227 Port: 21 [07:58:38] Connected to ftp.flightgear.org. [07:58:38] 220 FTP Server ready. [07:58:38] USER anonymous [07:58:38] 331 Anonymous login ok, send your complete email address as your password [07:58:38] PASS (hidden) [07:58:39] 530 Sorry, the maximum number of clients (1) from your host are already connected. In fact the client tries to open another ftp session. There is one already opened to show the file list and it prevents the download to occur. When the first session timed out, the download could happened and succeed, but only after several retries. An "old school" ftp client could have helped here. By the way, the first connect session is : [08:09:31] SmartFTP v3.0.1016.10 [08:09:43] Resolving host name "ftp.flightgear.org" [08:09:43] Connecting to 128.101.141.227 Port: 21 [08:09:43] Connected to ftp.flightgear.org.
