I might be able to tell you something if I could see the actual command instead of the mess I see in the mailing list archive, but if you are actually specifying anything like "https://ABC.com/*";, then you can expect trouble. Wildcards like "*" don't work with the HTTP[S] schemes, only with a scheme like FTP. (When you're talking to an FTP server, then you should be able to get a directory listing. The same is not true for an HTTP[S] server.) Wget does have a "-r" ("--recursive") option, which might do what you want (but that will depend on what you want, and I don't know what that is). Apostrophes also mean something to DCL, so if you're really using those (as in "--http-user='xxx'"), then you could be in still more trouble. Have you tried using this wget program to do anything simpler than this? Did that work? Send some plain-text e-mail showing the actual wget command to the address below (more or less), and I'll see what I can do. Also: show symbol wget wget "-V" And, of course, with a host specification like "abc.com", I can't do any testing, so you might also look into the "-d" ("--debug") option if you want to see what the program is actually doing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Steven M.
