freebsd-update is a /bin/sh shell script. Looking at the source I can see it uses /usr/bin/fetch, so it's probably just a matter of reading the fetch(1) & fetch(3) manpages to get it to do what you want. If all else fails, you might be able to hack the freebsd-update script to use Wget instead of Fetch, but I doubt you'll need to go to that much trouble. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
