[mythtv-users] Unable to download program guide

Hi,

I just installed KnoppMyth and think that I'm almost there with
MythTV. Where I'm stuck is when it tries to query zap2it's servers for
my program guide.

When it was trying, I quickly switched over to a different virtual
console and did a 'ps auxw |grep wget' and grabbed the command it was
doing so I could try it by hand. It's apparently getting a 401
Unauthorized error, but I know the username and passwd are correct:

###

--post-file='/tmp/mythposttDzJiu' --header='Accept-Encoding:gzip'

It looks like it's expecting some data in /tmp/mythposttDzJiu but it
doesn't exist. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Thanks!
