Hi, I have trouble using wildcards in wget FTP connections. wget doesn't treat `*' and `?' as wildcards but ordinary characters, so the connection results in something like this:
$ wget -e ftp_proxy=192.168.35.1:3128 ftp://ftp.fit.vutbr.cz/pub/XFree86/4.3.0/ source/* Warning: wildcards not supported in HTTP. --11:16:34-- ftp://ftp.fit.vutbr.cz/pub/XFree86/4.3.0/source/* => `*' Connecting to 192.168.35.1:3128... connected. Proxy request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found 11:16:54 ERROR 404: Not Found. Note that I use FTP proxy server (firewall), I run CygWin over M$ Win2000Pro and this problem occurs using both wget from CygWin installation and M$ Win wget binary I downloaded separately, and also running from GygWin bash or M$ Win cmdline.
