Sorry, I somehow failed to notice this post. :\ The index.html file that the proxy generated is invalid. Apparently it wants to tack on ^M (carriage return, \r) after every filename, as a literal part of the link. It looks like Wget doesn't even acknowledge links like that; but even if it did, it'd send a request to the proxy like: GET /CommonUpdater/avvdat-XXXX.zip%0D rather than GET /CommonUpdater/avvdat-XXXX.zip so it would still most likely fail to get a real file (though it _might_ work, if the proxy and/or the FTP server are a little sloppy). One likely explanation for this, seems to me, is that the proxy gets back the LIST response like: foo CR LF bar CR LF and removes the LFs while leaving in the CR, and spitting them out as part of the link. That's really poor behavior, considering that FTP servers _ought_ to send CR LF (and not bare LF), as it's supposed to use "telnet conventions". - -- Micah J.
