In scripts I use wget to download modules.
wget http:webaddress/file -O /tmp/file

Are you sure that ftp server on remote host is working? Because nmap shows me that ftp ports are closed
Code: Select all
$ nmap -Pn 185.27.134.150 -p 20-21
Starting Nmap 7.93 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2024-08-05 19:48 CEST
Nmap scan report for 185.27.134.150
Host is up (0.089s latency).
PORT STATE SERVICE
20/tcp closed ftp-data
21/tcp closed ftp
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.14 seconds
This is what a successful connection to ftp server looks like
