yeah but I usually use the username:[EMAIL PROTECTED] syntazx
as also illustreated in the man page.  Actually IIRC the examples show
it for htp but it has always worked for http: as well.

Further research indicates the issue here is that the IIS server is
using NTLM as an auth scheme and since it ia a MS proprietary format it
is not well supported.  pavuk says is does it and I an trying to figure
out if the one I have hase the crypto stuff compiled in since it is
necessary.

FYI  wget supports only the basic html authentication scheme.  I am NOT
going to use a windows box for this so I will keep digging. 
Interestingly enough mozilla gets there just fine.  Hmm I wonder if the
remote functions of mozilla will let me script a page save?  another
option to examine I guess.

Thanks for the reply.

Bret
