Re: cuj.com file retrieving fails -why?

[Jens Rösner]

Hallo Markus!

This is not a bug (I reckon) and should therefore have been sent to 
the normal wget list.

Using both wget 1.7.1 and 1.8.1 on Windows the file is 
downloaded with 

wget -d -U "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/2.2.1; Linux)" -r
http://www.cuj.com/images/resource/experts/alexandr.gif

as well as with

wget http://www.cuj.com/images/resource/experts/alexandr.gif

So, I do not know what your problem is, but is neither wget#s nor cuj's
fault, AFAICT.

I've just built Wget 1.7 on Linux and it seemed to download your
problem file okay. So I don't know what your problem is either!

Ah! The kind of problem I like most!
Did You have a special .wgetrc?

Nothing special.

$HOME/.wgetrc :

robots = off

system wgetrc :

# Comments stripped out
passive_ftp = on
waitretry = 10
