    Slackware Wget and Fetch
    « on: October 26, 2008, 01:31:01 AM »
    I just installed Slackware, and I need to install sshd. It is installed by default, but the keygen's are missing. When I use wget or fetch I get "Command Not Found". What can I do?

    Have you looked in /usr/bin for wget?

    Why don't you use Slackpkg? Or get the tgz files via ftp?

      I'll just use CD. Seems the first CD for Slackware is only the core system components.

      Pretty standard, that, for Linux distros on CD-ROM. First disk for core, 2nd disk and onwards for supplementary stuff. I must admit I was a bit confused about why you didn't just use an install disk.

      Actually I don't understand why you couldn't download stuff using your web browser, presuming you have one? Or are you running a console-only install?

        The reason I didn't use an install disk is because I really didn't want to download and burn 5 CD's. I thought I'd just build it up from scratch. Maybe I should install the second CD, I'd say it will have wget or fetch.

        And yes, I'm using console only.
