Issue around downloads

[russh]

Hi guys,

I used to update my community edition reasonable easily - by getting the URL, then ssh-ing onto my mailserver and using wget to ensure it arrives on my mailserver ready for the upgrade. However with the new (Xandros?) structure, the download URL is no longer a direct download link - but now points to a script that serves you the download. Is it possible to get something that works with wget?

For example - here's what I get;
http://esd1.xandros.com/cgi-bin/d?r=100 ... fef5e8&g=1

... but it should work if you put quotes around the link.

e.g. wget "http://esd1.xandros.com/cgi-bin/d?r=1000000.scalix-community-rhel5-intel.e918ad71a352ba58.9d9652fef5e8&g=1"

The ampersand is misinterpreted without the quotes.

[I'd love to say I figured that out myself, but I can't! Thanks Abdel!]

that's ideal - will get me sorted for moving to 11.4.3!
