 Does the DW4 server have error logs I can check?

Ah yes, its coming back to me now.
Wget does indeed use an old api that is not present in current servers.

Instead of wget, you can use the dw utility (which is just a shim that
provides access to the high level dw api).

dw server list http://google.com

Or the shorthand

dw s l http://url

And you can use standard io redirection to put the data into a file.

Please get rid of that old disk,  I think it can only cause trouble.  The
dw download page has disks with current software.

anything to do with a possible future project name change yet, does it?
