AFAIK, wget doesn't have an option --passive
I searched the manuals for version 1.5.3 and for 1.8.1 for --passive and in
both manuals I only find --passive-ftp or ---passive-ftp

wget v1.5.3 has --passive-ftp
wget v1.8.1 has ---passive-ftp
(note the extra '-')

Maybe you need to use --passive-ftp or ---passive-ftp (depending on the version
of wget) or leave it out entirely (its default is on).
