This to me seems like the remote server is replying with 401. Perhaps wget is sending the If-Modified-Since HTTP header, and the remote server does not support this. I would confirm this by running tcpdump (or wireshark) to sniff the traffic and see what the remote server is replying with. If the remote server is truly returning 401, then you might either need to use an alternative tool, or configure wget differently. Hope this helps Andrew _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
