Ok, try out:
lftp http://dag.wieers.com/packages/
If your HTTP_USER_AGENT contains wget or lftp, you are redirected to
http://apt.sw.be/packages/. If I test it here with lftp 3.0.1, I get this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dag]$ lftp http://dag.wieers.com/packages/
lftp dag.wieers.com:/packages> ls
drwxr-xr-x -- .
However this works:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dag]$ lftp http://apt.sw.be/packages/
lftp apt.sw.be:/packages> ls
drwxr-xr-x -- /
drwxr-xr-x - 2004-04-15 02:21 4g8
drwxr-xr-x - 2004-02-25 09:33 BasiliskII
I would have expected my initial ls to automatically reconnect to
apt.sw.be instead of dag.wieers.com. So that the ls was done on apt.sw.be.
If that would be possible in the future, it would be great ;)
