Help with wget script please?
Posted: 14 Nov 2008, 14:41
Hi all
This is a general Linux query really, but thought I’d ask you guys.
I'm trying to put together a small script on my bubba to retrieve connection info from my router.
The problem I'm having is that the script fails due to authorization the first time round, but if I try it again, it works. Any ideas to why this would happen?
Heres the results of my wget's:
Many Thanks
Gary
