Also there is still Ángel's remark: your change only applies to --secure- protocol=PFS. But you also answered to my posting that user should not be able to change it... but they can by using e.g. --secure-protocol=TLSv1 or by doing settings in ~/.wgetrc. Maybe you could explain a bit more detailed what you want to do and what you expect Wget to do in a Redhat compilation. We really want to help you out. Tim
