Thanks for the quick reply. New info: I found and tried a different version (1.9.1) and it worked correctly. So it looks like the problem is just with the dev version (1.9+cvs-dev-200311280902) I was using. I used the exact same command line with the new version, so the permission errors in the -d output might be a good clue, but the userid and password supplied were correct. The site is userid/password protected (generic web server .htpasswd).
I'll list the additional information requested here in case it helps someone else or helps debug the dev version. The command line became quite ugly as I started throwing additional options on trying to get it to work. I would prefer to not give out the file/site/password etc. details so I've x'ed those out. They shouldn't be important for this anyway. wget -nd -A pdf,zip -S -v -r -np --http-user=xxx --http-passwd=xxxxxxxx http://xxxxxxx.com/etc/etc/etc DEBUG output created by Wget 1.9+cvs-dev-200311280902 on Windows. set_sleep_mode(): mode 0x80000001, rc 0x80000000 Enqueuing http://xxxxxxx.com/etc/etc/etc at depth 0 Queue count 1, maxcount 1.
