In case anyone is having trouble getting this working, you can use the ant native get task and achieve something in a much simpler way. No extra dependencies, works out of the box:

      ant {
        get(src: "ftp://<hostname>/remote/path/to/file.jar", dest: "/local/path/to/file", username: 'anonymous', password: 'anonymous')
      }
