using wget for FETCH_CMD
Hello, I've been using wget as my FETCH_CMD in /etc/make.conf for some time now, as it's the only thing I've been able to use to reliably get through the microsoft proxy server. Now, when I make fetch, I get this error: wget: illegal option -- and according to the thread /etc/make.c wget... on this list, a couple weeks back it appears that a recent change to /usr/ports/Mk/* broke this, and now FETCH_CMD needs to use fetch. The problem is, that I while I fetch does seem to be able to download HTTP urls, I can't get it to download FTP urls through the proxy. I've tried various combinations of FTP_PROXY and FTP_PASSIVE_MODE. Is there anything else I can set? Finally, is there any way I can get it to use wget again? -- Brady Montz [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've tried various combinations of FTP_PROXY and FTP_PASSIVE_MODE. Is there anything else I can set? Setting FTP_PROXY to http://proxyserver:port/ works for me and a squid proxy. If it's using a proxy, I don't think FTP_PASSIVE_MODE is checked. Sadly, it doesn't work for me. And, as much as I hate this proxy server, it is what I have to go through. So, is there any way to get back to using wget? I have my doubts that fetch is going to be able to do the job. -- Brady Montz [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
