Correct, there was a typo and the enhancements I did later don't
survive the test. Make it:
wget http://vm.marist.edu/~pipeline/index.html

I'll try.

That's because you need more recent plumbing that has the HTTPSPLIT stage.

Ah, my.  Where do I go to get that?

Various proxies do things differently, but I have certainly used this
scheme through a proxy as well. I've seen shops where you just have
basic authentication and use the target host name in the URL. I could
not see from your code how your proxy works.

I may have masked too much.  Where the direct approach would be:

    connect server
    GET path

Our proxy (which I thought pretty conventional) requires:

    connect proxy
    GET http://server/path

I can do that in the Rexx, or ignore it inside the firewall.

Have you an example for WGET REXX?

Thanks again,
gil
