That command worked fine for me, with curl-7.21.0-5.fc14.x86_64, but I realized that it worked because I was using a proxy. So I would suggest people do: unset ftp_proxy before running the test. The command fails in the way you described without a proxy. I looked at the trace (curl -v) and it looks like the FTP server itself is not responding correctly. The problem does not seem to be the REST command, but the short RETR: curl only downloads 17 bytes then closes the connection, but this appears to confuse the FTP server. The FTP server appears to die when this happens, whereas I think I would expect it to send an error message on the control connection.
