Using the FILE protocol
Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2005 22:31:19 +0800
Hello,
The FILE protocol (I presume are for things like
\\server\sharedrive\filename) is listed as a supported protocol.
However, none of the documents actually mentioned it and there are no
examples for it. All the other protocols seemed to have at least 1
example...
I have tried various combination of it but I could not get it to work.
Does anybody has any idea how to use this?
I have tried these...
----------
curl -C - -O "file://server/path/file"
and I get -->
curl: (37) Couldn't open file /path/file
----------
----------
curl -C - -O file:\\server\path\file
and I get -->
curl: Remote file name has no length!
curl: try 'curl --help' or 'curl --manual' for more information
----------
Thanks for any info.
