Re: Error connecting to target server
It works fine from here (209.98.249.184, Wget 1.10.2a1, VMS Alpha V7.3-2). If it hangs for you, it could be that firewall. It's easy enough to block port 80 and pass "ping". Does any browser work? I suspect not. Steven M. Schweda (+1) 651-699-9818 382 South Warwick Street[EMAIL PROTECTED] Saint Paul MN 55105-2547

I think http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/faq.html should have another question: "Why did my download fail and how can I get it to work?" In the answer to that question we should mention all the common failure modes: disallowed by robots.txt, need to set user agent to look like a browser, META refresh (as above), etc. along with the command line options to resolve the failure. Also, perhaps the next version of wget can handle META refresh. Tony
