Your server does not like wget user agent, in fact it works if you tell wget to use a different one. For example try using Iceweasel user agent, it works: wget --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080129 Iceweasel/2.0.0.12 (Debian-2.0.0.12-0etch1)" http://www.unix.org.ua/ cheers!
