DragonFly fixes fetch utility timeouts |
|
People who have used older versions of DragonFly BSD and its close cousin, FreeBSD, have probably run into situations where the fetch command stalls while retrieving a remote file and then fails to resume or abort the download. Matthew Dillon has addressed this on DragonFly BSD: "The -T timeout flag does not always timeout the program. The implementation only tested it during the initial connection and header fetch, not during data transfers. Make the -T timeout apply to data transfers. However, any progress on the transfer resets the timer." This should make the fetch utility more reliable. |
