Fw: Re: [Bug-wget] help on wget with IIS forms authentication

[Rajesh N]

Hi Micah

Not sure if you already replied..Sorry if you've replied. Kindly mark a copy to 
address@hidden to avoid any mail delivery issue.

I've tried the commands you sent in the link. But they don't seem to go 
through. I can see the cookie file getting generated, but when I use that 
cookie file for the second call to actually download the file, I get an error 
that request is not authorized. Looks like the cookie file is not correct. I've 
attached the commmand that I tried.

Also when I'm behind a proxy server, the request is not going at all. I get 
Connection could not be made error. I've set the http_proxy in the .trc file 
and specified the proxy user and password in the wget command, but no success.

I would appreciate if any one in the mailing group can help me.

Regards

Rajesh
