I ssh into my FreeBSD server which isn't even in the same country I am and have tried it with Lynx-ssl. Can't be done. The work around I found was to use Mozilla locally until after the licensing is confirmed. Then copy the link to the actual zip/tar.gz file(s) and paste to the open remote ssh session prefixed by "fetch ". So it looks something like: $ fetch http://the.jdk.source.url;sessionid Because the session ID is part of the GET, it works from the remote box despite having a different URL. It would be nice if Sun would make their site work with text-based browsers. I think I had the same problem with downloading the patch. But it's been a while. --- Michael Westbay Work: Beacon-IT http://www.beacon-it.co.jp/ Home: http://www1.seaple.icc.ne.jp/westbay Commentary: http://www.japanesebaseball.com/forum/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
