Hello gnu, I'm experiencing a wrong display of the file size of a huge file to get: berny> wget -Y off -c 'ftp://my-server/pub/dvd.iso' --13:56:35-- ftp://my-server/pub/dvd.iso => `dvd.iso' Resolving my-server... 192.168.0.4 Connecting to linx.ct.siemens.de[192.168.0.4]:21... connected.

RE: --http-passwd=
Wow, that ws quick! Thank you. The man page proposes to put the password in wgetrc or another file. Your solution sounds more secure to me. Maybe someone has some time left to enhance the man pages.

--http-passwd=
G'day, I recognized that the password passed to wget with the option "--http-passwd=" can be seen as clear text with tools like ps and top. I'm using wget 1.9.1 on cygwin: += | [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> uname -a | CYGWIN_NT-5.0 mhhbxoic 1.5.6(0.108/3/2) 2004-01-19 00:43 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin | [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> wget -V | GNU Wget 1.9.1 | | Copyright (C) 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
