Hello, I have problem with command wget to download files from website

This commands does not work fine

wget --http-user=user --http-password=password http://file.txt

Always I see error user and password, but the user and password both are
correct.


Hi,

You're not giving much details so I'm afraid I can't go further than a broad 
heuristic.

First, Wget supports HTTP Authentication only 
(http://pretty-rfc.herokuapp.com/RFC2617). Thus, if you're trying to 
authenticate against a standard web form, that won't work.

Further, 'txt' is not a valid gTLD I know of 
(https://publicsuffix.org/list/public_suffix_list.dat).
