hi

how to retrieve the status of an unsucessfull download using wget?
e.g. when i receive "host not found", the 404 error or anything else?

These errors are printed to stderr. You can use the -o flag (or -a to append) followed by a file name to log messages to the specified file. Read the wget man page.

jaa

well

i know about that - isn't some system variable set?
i'm too lazy to parse the output log ;-)
