Subject: Help - Linux?

Would somebody please try this on Linux for me.  It works fine on 
Windows but hangs on Fedora.

Thanks,

#!/usr/bin/ruby

require 'net/ftp'

def getMetar(id)
     metar = Array.new
     i = 0
     ftp = Net::FTP.new('tgftp.nws.noaa.gov')
     puts ftp.login
     puts ftp.sendcmd('PASV')
     ftp.chdir('/data/observations/metar/stations')
     ftp.gettextfile("#{id.upcase}.TXT") do |line|
         metar[i] = line
         i = i + 1
     end
     ftp.close
     return metar
end

puts getMetar("KBFL")
