Hello, I am sitting behind a http proxy and need to access the internet through this channel. In most cases this works fine - but there are certain FTP server sites that I can only access via browser or wget. This also is no problem - as long as I need to retrieve data.
Problems come up as soon as I need to upload data - this seems to be possible only via netscape 4. All tools that I used (including gftp, kbear, lftp) do not help out. E.g. using gftp I can access ftp.suse.com - but not these sites. As the browser is rahter unreliable in this respect I would like to use another tool. Problem sites are testcase.boulder.ibm.com ftp.software.ibm.com Since wget is able to obtain directoy listings / retrieve data from there is should be possible to also upload data (the browser is able to as well). What is so special about wget that it is able to perform this task ? If I knew, maybe I could find a solution to this problem. I am running LInux SuSE9.0, kernel 2.4.26, wget-1.8.2-301. I have set env variable http_proxy ftp_proxy which make the connection working fine with wget. Any idea ?
