Problem solved: I neglected to tell wget to use the LAN proxy server; I couldn't tell from wget's messages that it wasn't reaching the suse web site. Thank you all of you for your help.

I'm running GNU Wget 1.9 for Windows PC; you all seem to run wget on a linux box; maybe behavior is different, needs a different parameter. Is anyone else out there running wget on a Windows PC to do this? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
