This is looking good. If you add -k to the command line, you'll probably find
that it works. -k disables certificate checking, so the better solution
is to find what CA was used to sign the server's certificate and add it to
your CA bundle.

You're missing a - in --ftp-ssl.

Same thing--missing -

Looks like the remote server doesn't support any service on port 990. This
host isn't likely to be useful to you.

If it's listening on port 990, it's going to be listening for ftps. Change
the URL to ftps://... and you'll see something different.

Of these attempts, the first and last are most likely to do what you want,
but the first (--ftp-ssl) is the more "standard" solution.
