Hi,

I already have your DownloadFile command working with OS4Depot, but for some reason it won't work with Aminet. The only difference I see is that aminet doesn't start with W3.

http://www.os4depot.net
http://aminet.net

Any idea?

WORKS:

data$, count = DownloadFile("http://www.os4depot.net/share/document/ ... ya2011.pdf", {File = "RAM:gtmooya.pdf", Fail404 = True, SilentFail = False} )
data$ = nil

DOES NOT WORK:

data$, count = DownloadFile("http://aminet.net/util/misc/MultiRen.lha", {File = "RAM:MultiRen.lha", Fail404 = True, SilentFail = False} )
data$ = nil

The first one works here, Aminet indeed doesn't work. I'll have a look at this. Maybe the Aminet server uses some special redirection mode.
