I don't see anything in the current code that would let it timeout. Probably something in the OS then (or perhaps the connection times out, if the server fails to send acks regularly enough or something). Or it could be something in 1.10.2 (or Red Hat modifications thereto). That said, this _really_ isn't what Wget/HTTP was meant for. Surely a mail-based service would be a tad more appropriate... - -- Micah J. Cowan Programmer, musician, typesetting enthusiast, gamer.
