Which? There's lots of imitations now, since the original is tricky to port away from Linux. I have right here 3 or 4 different "wget for windows" programs and that doesn't even touch on cygwin. Even busybox has its own extremely minimal wget imitation now.

Some of them are reduced and butchered versions of GNU wget, with anything tricky to do in Windows disabled. Others are rewritten from scratch, and handle their options slightly or very differently.

Since Cygwin has a UNIX like environment, presumably you could build the original GNU wget with most of its features, though not necessarily all, Cygwin still has corners where it's just not the same. But I don't know if that's what you did -- you could have done what I did, and found wget.exe inside unxutils or busybox. Or even ported it yourself. If you're building it from scratch, hard to guess.

Mine is sufficient. If it ain't broke, don't fixit.
If it serves your needs, absolutely. It wasn't intended as a criticism.

What flavor of UX did you run this on?
I mostly stick to Linux. I use that construct quite frequently, with various details changed for the task at hand.

NAME
ftphosts - FTP Server individual user host access file SYNOPSIS
/etc/ftpd/ftphosts DESCRIPTION
The ftphosts file is used to allow or deny access to accounts from specified hosts. The following access capabilities are supported: allow username addrglob [addrglob...] Only allow users to login as username from host(s) that match addrglob. deny username addrglob [addrglob...] Do not allow users to login as username from host(s) that match addrglob. A username of * matches all users. A username of anonymous or ftp specifies the anonymous user. addrglob is a regular expression that is matched against hostnames or IP addresses. addrglob may also be in the form address:netmask or address/CIDR, or be the name of a file that starts with a slash ('/') and contains additional address globs. An exclamation mark (`!') placed before the addrglob negates the test. The first allow or deny entry in the ftphosts file that matches a username and host is used. If no entry exists for a username, then access is allowed. Otherwise, a matching allow entry is required to permit access. EXAMPLES
You can use the following ftphosts file to allow anonymous access from any host except those on the class A network 10, with the exception of 10.0.0.* IP addresses, which are allowed access: allow ftp 10.0.0.* deny ftp 10.*.*.* allow ftp * 10.0.0.* can be written as 10.0.0.0:255.255.255.0 or 10.0.0.0/24.
