Hey all, I want to grab a config file from a web server. Basically I need

Is this a Perl question?
Duh, yes, it is -- you said "grab", not "serve". Ignore the last mail.
The simplest way to do this is in Perl with LWP:
use LWP::Simple;
$content = get($URL);
Or to be more robust about it:
use LWP::Simple;
unless (defined ($content = get $URL)) {
die "could not get $URL\n";
}
Make sense?
