Hello,

I am running in to something in wget that, if not a bug, may be possibly
an oversight. If this is covered anywhere in the documentation I
apologise, but I have been through it and I can't find any mention of
this behaviour.

Trying to connect to my University's FTP servers (which run Novel
Netware) I find that I am unable to change to the correct server. I
don't know much about Netware, so I have no idea if this is specific to
my university or is common to all NW installations.

Using a manual FTP session I can execute a 'cd //ls10' to change to a
different server, however whenever I try this with wget (by specifying
pathnames with the double slash in them) the double slash is truncated
to a single slash which is an invalid pathname.

If this is some quirk of my uni's set up and subsequently relevant to
nobody else on the planet then I'll live with it, but I thought I'd
mention it.

Many thanks for wget - it's an excellent utility ;)

Cheers,

Andy Arbon
