wget does everything right, but sophos site is a little tricky.
wget does not download requested file becuse sophos have enabled redirection of web page to www.sophos.com/downloads and wget then downloads present *.html page in size of 23k, not the file linux.intel.lib6.tar.Z. 
There must bi some kind of bypass to get to the file with submiting username and pass. I'm currently expecting reply from sophos tech support.

Till then I'm stuck.

I have tried this using WGET (the on-line help will tell you how to pass username and passwords), but without success. Downloading the tar'd Linux file stops at about 23k rather than the 1MB or so mark.

Anyone else had any more luck?

Hi,

Running Mailscanner for quite a while, very pleased. :-))
Now I'm wondering...
IDE autoupdate is working fine, but I'm looking for complete automated updates.
Does anyone have a effective script for downloading major sophos update file. 
Something just to change username and pass.

Thanx in advance
