Now your problem transfers to that master storage place. My suggestion would be to use Perl; WWW::Mechanize does a pretty good job these days. Perhaps modify Pulled Pork to get what you need all in one application (or make a feature request).We shouldn't have to write algorithms to download a tarball. A simple redirect would do.
The moving target link is already a redirect. I agree, a known link that is a redirect to the moving target would be useful, but I'm not sure that's possible with the way the backend system is set up for snort.org these days. I'll throw it out to the IT folks again though.
Also, for the record, if you see me top-post then I am most likely not paying attention.I figured you were borrowing Joel's iPadPhone :-)
He won't let anyone near that thing. It's a little creepy the way he holds on to it.
Also, nice if you cut the Sourceforge mailing list cruft from the bottom of replies. Not totally required, but keeps threads a little more readable.Umm, I did, and always have.
Oh, yeah I know, just wanted to throw that in there when the "top post" crew get involved along with the "who cares?" people. Bottom post, cut the cruft. -- Nigel Houghton Head Mentalist SF VRT Department of Intelligence Excellence http://vrt-sourcefire.blogspot.com && http://labs.snort.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
