Help with wget script please?

Post by GaryL »

Hi all

This is a general Linux query really, but thought I’d ask you guys.

I'm trying to put together a small script on my bubba to retrieve connection info from my router.

The problem I'm having is that the script fails due to authorization the first time round, but if I try it again, it works. Any ideas to why this would happen?

Heres the results of my wget's:

Code: Select all

gary@bubba:~$ wget --http-user=myuser --http-passwd=password --output-document=/home/gary/public_html/index.html http://192.168.0.1/setup.cgi?next_file=stattbl.htm
--19:13:35--  http://192.168.0.1/setup.cgi?next_file=stattbl.htm
           => `/home/gary/public_html/index.html'
Connecting to 192.168.0.1:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 401 Unauthorized
Authorization failed.
gary@bubba:~$ 

Code: Select all

gary@bubba:~$ wget --http-user=myuser --http-passwd=password --output-document=/home/gary/public_html/index.html http://192.168.0.1/setup.cgi?next_file=stattbl.htm
--19:14:37--  http://192.168.0.1/setup.cgi?next_file=stattbl.htm
           => `/home/gary/public_html/index.html'

Many Thanks
