Thanks I got them. You said you haven't used them since the Novell conversion. If so, you may not know.
But if you have used them since the Novell conversion: 1. When I go to https://you.novell.com/update/s390/update/SUSE-CORE/9/rpm/s390/ via a web browser, notice the "https". I end up in an FTP site. When I execute the wget, I fail on messages like: --15:54:01-- ftp://https:21/%2Fyou.novell.com/update/s390/update/SUSE-CORE/9/rpm/s390/ => [EMAIL PROTECTED]@5C/update/s390/update/SUSE-CORE/9/rpm/s390/.listing' Connecting to https:21... https: Host not found --15:54:06-- ftp://https:21/%2Fyou.novell.com/update/s390/update/SUSE-CORE/9/rpm/s390/ => [EMAIL PROTECTED]@5C/update/s390/update/SUSE-CORE/9/rpm/s390/index.html' ==> CWD not required. ==> PORT ... https: Unknown error FINISHED --15:54:06-- Downloaded: 0 bytes in 0 files My test command is simular to (with userid and password masked)): wget --output-file=c:\tget.listing --tries=3 --wait=3 --timestamping -e robots=off --no-host-directories --cut-dirs=1 --mirror --no-parent --http-user=xxxxxxxx --http-passwd=xxxxxxx --directory-prefix=c:\ --reject gif --cache=off https://you.novell.com/update/s390/update/SUSE-CORE/9/rpm/s390/ If I try http instead of https, it complains there is no index file present, but it seems to find the host. Any ideas? It could be that I have an old copy of wget for windows. I downloaded the first one that came up with google.

The wget parameters are probably compatible with Linux wget If you use a proxy-http server it'll have to be a non-Mxxxxsoft one I think; our default proxy is from Mxxxxsoft and wget couldn't authenticate to it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
