Hello, I have problem with command wget to download files from website
(user and passwors)
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).
