Hello, I try to use wget to fetch SSL-protected files. The use of a proxy is mandantory in my case, so I use the following commands on my linux box:
export http_proxy=http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3128
export https_proxy=http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3128
(10.2.4.33 is the IP of the proxy system)
Here is a dump
# wget -dq https://160.83.4.123
DEBUG output created by Wget 1.9.1 on linux-gnu.
Created socket 3.
Releasing 0x808ad68 (new refcount 0).
Deleting unused 0x808ad68.
---request begin---
GET https://160.83.4.123/ HTTP/1.0
User-Agent: Wget/1.9.1
Host: 160.83.4.123
Accept: */*
Proxy-Authorization: Basic ejA4MTAwOmJtdWV1aWU=
---request end---
HTTP/1.0 500 Server Error
Date: Thu, 02 Dec 2004 15:18:43 GMT

Closing fd 3
As you can see in the request, wget uses GET to fetch the url. This is
OK for http but for https it should use a CONNECT request instead.
Normal web browsers work that way.
When I omit the https_proxy environment variable, wget tries to directly
connect to the server.
Regards,
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
