when i put this
Code:
awk '{ sub(/\r/, ""); } /^d/ && ($9 != ".") && ($9 != "..") { print "ftp://user:pass@hostname/directory1/" $9 }' .listing  |  wget -I - -r -N  -nH --cut-dirs=1

it says

Code:
wget: missing URL
Usage: wget [OPTION]... [URL]...

Try ‘wget --help’ for more options.

i think its really close but a small syntax thing
thanks!
