[nslu2-linux] wget and --http-user

 

I had a script on my Slug that updates my dynamic DNS entry. It checked
if the IP address changed, and if it did, it simply used wget to visit a
URL <http://members.dyndns.org/nic/update?hostname=jslug.dyndns.org> to
update the entry.

However, that was on SlugOS-4.8 it used HTTP authentication to login to
members.dyndns.org. Since then, I re-flashed my Slug with
SlugOS-5.3-beta. Unfortunately, my new wget appears unable to do HTTP
authentication.

Can someone help me confirm that HTTP authentication has been removed
from wget? Is there a package available to add HTTP authentication back
to wget (or will I have to compile a new Busybox)?

Thanks.
