Hi Martin/All,
I was talking to some of the SunSolve Engineers about the broken
"method=r" operand, that was previously used to retrieve patch README files.
While it has not yet been decided the timeframe of the fix for this (it
could be October), I was advised that there is a operand "method-tr"
(obviously news to me too!) that can be used instead of "method=r" to
retrieve a patch README.
For example:
bash-3.00# /usr/sfw/bin/wget --no-check-certificate --http-user="xxxxxxxx" --http-passwd="xxxxxxxx" "http://sunsolve.sun.com/pdownload.do?target=142284-01&method=tr" -O /tmp/142284-01.README
--20:55:24-- http://sunsolve.sun.com/pdownload.do?target=142284-01&method=tr
=> `/tmp/142284-01.README'
