+# way around. That is required on systems behind NAT where the client
+# computer cannot be easily reached from the Internet. However, some

+# problems supporting passive transfer. If you are in such
+# environment, use "passive_ftp = off" to revert to active FTP.

# The "wait" command below makes Wget wait between every connection.
# downloads, set waitretry to maximum number of seconds to wait (Wget
# will use "linear backoff", waiting 1 second after the first failure
# on a file, 2 seconds after the second failure, etc. up to this max).
