If I execute this locally, everything works fine:

require 'net/ftp'

ftp=Net::FTP.new("myftpserver.com", "username", "password")

ftp.getbinaryfile("/myfile.zip","localfile.zip")
ftp.close

If I attempt to execute it on the Linux server I am using, the result is:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/ftp.rb:273:in `getresp': 500 Illegal

What could be the problem?
