This doesn't help (the default timeout is 15 minutes). The problem is not
endemic to wget. I can reproduce it using telnet, as shown here:

I killed the telnet session after waiting in vain for a about a minute
or so. Here is the tcpdump of the session above:

If I try exactly the same thing on an SGI (IRIX 6.2), it works, like it's
supposed to:

] I'm basically using it in a 2-d world for remote sensing data applications. 99% of the people in this area use IDL. DX stands out better in 3-d applications, but from my experience

] I use DX for many data types, especially unstructured and polyline and I also use DX as a debugging tool for just about anything. If an algorithm isn't doing what I think it should, just start a new DX program from scratch and in minutes you can be analizing the problem.

I have received mail from someone else who could reproduce the problem
on his Debian 2.1 kernel 2.2.10 box, and also had problems with this
site on a certain SUN machine (the SUN I have access to works fine
though). The server on the remote machine (www.opendx.org) is
Apache/1.3.6 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.3.3 OpenSSL/0.9.3a PHP/3.0.9 (as revealed
by wget -S --debug www.opendx.org.

Does anyone have an explanation for all this?

Regards,

Dan
