That's worrying because it means the tests are failing for some other 
unknown reason. So I tested this from vm2 and indeed it looks like there 
is no banning. But the first wget initially failed a bunch of times:

$ wget -O/dev/null ftp://anonymous:[email protected]/
--2019-11-08 18:29:50--  ftp://anonymous:*password*@ftp.winehq.org/
           => ‘.listing’
Resolving ftp.winehq.org (ftp.winehq.org)... 4.15.184.77

connected.

--2019-11-08 18:29:51--  ftp://anonymous:*password*@ftp.winehq.org/
  (try: 2) => ‘.listing’
Connecting to ftp.winehq.org (ftp.winehq.org)|4.15.184.77|:21...

And so on until it magically started working on the 16th try:

--2019-11-08 18:31:35--  ftp://anonymous:*password*@ftp.winehq.org/
  (try:16) => ‘.listing’

2019-11-08 18:31:35 (9.96 MB/s) - ‘.listing’ saved [245]


Then the subsequent runs worked:


$ wget -O/dev/null ftp://anonymous:[email protected]/
--2019-11-08 18:31:35--  ftp://anonymous:*password*@ftp.winehq.org/
           => ‘.listing’

.listing                                                 [ <=>                                                                                                                  ]     245  --.-KB/s    in 0.001s  

2019-11-08 18:31:36 (207 KB/s) - ‘.listing’ saved [245]

Removed ‘.listing’.


Unfortunately I did not get the initial bad server response and when I 
tried from vm1 wget worked the first time around. I wonder if there is 
something strange going on with inetd or some equivalent. Unless it's 
something to do with NATing vs. ftp in active mode(*). Maybe I'll retry 
tomorrow.


(*) I doubt that one because the tests seem to be good about specifying 
    INTERNET_FLAG_PASSIVE, and I believe that would only be an issue if 
    there was some router-level load balancing going on.
