Trying to wget the Gnome updates for 9.0 (failing)

I tried to wget the Gnome base files for 9.0 and was rejected at the gate by the server (i think). The following is the command and the response: --11:37:52-- ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/GNOME2/ update_for_9.0/base/ (try: 4) => `.listing' Connecting to ftp.suse.com[195.135.221.130]:21... connected. Logging in as anonymous ... Error in server response, closing control connection. Retrying. Am I leaving something out? Thanks dj tuchler
