[SOLVED] Using telnet to download file

[user123456789]

Hi.

I need to download a html file via telnet.

I tried "telnet [server] 80" and than wrote a "get" command.
but the output goes to console. I need the output in a file.

How can I do this?

Thanks

Can't you get it via ftp?

If you can connect to port 80 assuming it runs a HTTP server, then why not try accessing it via a browser?

telnet google.com 80 > index.html

just issue your GET request.

Hi.
Thanks for replying.

telnet google.com 80 > index.html

.

This works! Strange, I thought I tried this before!
But thanks.

@ManishSinha:
Unfotunately not. The task is explicit.
I just spend hours to figure out how to do that, but it was for nothing!



Thanks
