Oops, I forgot to mention my connection details. I'm NOT using a proxy, but I'm connected using Cyberoam client. In linux I'm running linc (linc.sf.net) and set up cron to force it to relogin every 3 minutes.
The problem is not downloading, it is "resuming" of partial downloads. So it is not a question of setting the http_proxy or something. This is some deeper problem Hope that helps Thanks Nikhil On Sat, Jan 24, 2009 at 3:24 PM, jtd <[email protected]> wrote: > On Saturday 24 January 2009 15:21, Nadeem M.
