I still do not believe this has anything to do with the server, if you have a couple of seconds please try this file instead:
http://www.medical.philips.com/us/company/connectivity/assets/docs/dicomcs/ENsphere%2520DICOM%25203%2520Conformance%2520Statement.pdf http://www.medical.philips.com/us/company/connectivity/assets/docs/dicomcs/usit15l3_final.pdf You'll see that both files are stored at the exact same location, but wget report two different things (*). I *seriously* doubt the server has a per file configuration...
