Hi! I think wget is the best command line download utility, but:
Wget handles this url badly: <---------------------- begin of screenshot ---------------------------------> pila@server686:/tmp$ wget ftp://anonymous:[EMAIL PROTECTED]@www.xxx.org/ --20:55:11-- ftp://anonymous:*password*@[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ => `.listing' Resolving [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed: Host not found. unlink: No such file or directory pila@server686:/tmp[1]$ <------------------------ end of screenshot ---------------------------------> You can see, that wget splits this url badly (as opposed to Netscape). The correct split would be: protocol = ftp user = anonymous pass = [EMAIL PROTECTED] host = www.xxx.org file+path = / If some RFC says that You are right, then it could be solved in an other way: there are --http-user, --http-passwd, --proxy-user and --proxy-passwd options to wget. What about --ftp-user and --ftp-passwd options? Bye, Pilaszy Istvan
