  ncftp
When passive mode is on, ncftp uses the FTP command primitive PASV to have the client establish data connections to the server.
The answer may be as simple as setting ncftp to use passive mode only, which you can do from a ncftp command prompt like this: set passive on The reason for this is because many firewalls do not allow incoming connections to the site, but do allow users to establish outgoing con- nections.
A passive data connection is established by the client to the server, whereas the default is for the server to establish the con- nection to the client, which firewalls may object to.

You could use ncftp to help you out by setting the appropriate local and remote directories, then simply doing: get * The program will skip over the old files, and only download the files that you don't have or have been updated since the last time.
For example, this would work: csh> ncftp ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/graphics/gif/README There are times where you might not want the program to write a colon-mode file in the current working directory, or perhaps you want to pipe the output of a remote file into something else.
Here's a really complex example: csh> ncftp -r -d 120 -n 3 sphygmomanometer.unl.edu:/pub/stuff/* This tries redialing that host every two minutes, and fetching all files from the ``/pub/stuff'' directory that are 3 days old or newer.
