Hello all,

I'm exhausting my options for ftp mirroring utilities on my NT/IIS network.
I need to ftp many very large files reliably.  It seems to me that wget is
the best utility for this.

However, when I test it out I get modified filenames.

command line:
wget -N -g -r -P test ftp://iwdf8000/d/ftp_usa/WPI/*

output:
--09:00:57--  ftp://iwdf8000/d/ftp_usa/WPI/[email protected]
           => `[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
==> CWD not required.
==> PORT ... done.    ==> RETR [email protected] ... done.

Why does wget put the '40' in the filename?  It appears that 0x40 = '@', so
I would assume it is a bug with the filename handling.  However, if I remove
the '-g' parameter, the filenames are correct, but wget will duplicate the
directory structure and place my files in "test\d\ftp_usa\WPI" instead of
"test".

I tried the GUI utility Wackget and it has the same problem, so I imagine
the bug is in the library, not the user interface.

Can anyone suggest anything that I can try?
