download from a stubborn ftp using wget

software 
We had the following issue:
Status:	Resolving address of ftp.example.com
Status:	Connecting to 192.0.43.10:21...
Status:	Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Response:	220 Welcome to this FTP Server
Command:	USER our-username
Response:	331 Please specify the password.
Command:	PASS *******
Response:	230 Login successful.
Status:	Connected
Status:	Retrieving directory listing...
Command:	PWD
Response:	257 "/"
Command:	TYPE I
Response:	200 Switching to Binary mode.
Command:	PASV
Response:	227 Entering Passive Mode 
Command:	LIST
Error:	Connection timed out
Error:	Failed to retrieve directory listing
the FTP server just would work in passive mode, and about every FTP-Client
we had was defaulting to Passive mode because we are behind a rooter and
obviously most ports aren't forwarded for security reasons.
What worked in the end was WGET
wget -m ftp://username:password@ftp.servername.com/foldername --no-passive-ftp
the -m option for wget means "mirror", so it mirror the folder structure on the server
(this is similar to -r but you don't have to specify which files using *
--no-passive-ftp sets wget to use only active connection











	

	
	


							


	

		
				

			typo3: different max width for images in different columns
		

		
		

			Uncategorized					

	


		

		
The problem: 


We usually have several content regions populated in the TS-Template like this:




 subparts.main_content < styles.content.get    
 subparts.main_content.select.where = colPos = 1

 subparts.second_content < styles.content.get    
 subparts.second_content.select.where = colPos = 2



etc...


You can define a global maxW for images, but often this needs to be specific for every content region. 


And this is how it should be done:


instead of:




subparts.right_content < styles.content.get      
subparts.right_content.select.where = colPos = 2
subparts.right_content.slide = -1


you must use:




 subparts.right_content = COA

 subparts.right_content{

    5 = LOAD_REGISTER

    5.maxImageWidth = 320

    10= COA

    10 < styles.content.get      
    10.select.where = colPos = 2
    10.slide =-1
    15 = RESTORE_REGISTER
  }
