Why my website download with wget fails with 403 Forbidden error
Jan 23rd
I attempted to download an online book hosted on a website using wget in Linux. Generally it works with any website. Strangely with the site I am trying, wget command fails with following error.
bash# wget http://dummy.net/orelly/weblinux2/php/ --2011-01-12 11:03:34-- http://dummy.net/orelly/weblinux2/php/ Resolving dummy.net... 213.73.167.132 Connecting to dummy.net|213.73.167.132|:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 403 Forbidden 2011-01-12 11:03:34 ERROR 403: Forbidden. bash#
Is there a way I can get rid of this problem?
