Hi,
I don't understand the behaviour of fetch(1). Whenever I try to fetch
from an URL, I get anwers like
> fetch http://www.google.com
fetch: http://www.google.com: No address record
I have set up my network correctly though. If, in contrast, I use wget, I get
> wget http://www.google.com
--11:20:32-- http://www.google.com/
=> `index.html'
Resolving www.google.com... done.
Connecting to www.google.com[66.102.9.99]:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
Length: unspecified [text/html]
[ <=> ] 2,298
10.69K/s
11:20:39 (10.69 KB/s) - `index.html.1' saved [2298]
... as expected.
What have I done wrong? Where can I configure fetch to honor my
network setup? Or can I configure portinstall to use wget instead of
fetch?
TIA
Helge
