This is an interesting question. Do I have to download 'wget' and install?

I wrote the find command. What does it say?

[root@c83-250-110-112 nissanka]# find / -name wget
/usr/bin/wget
[root@c83-250-110-112 nissanka]#

Gins - I have moved your 2 posts to their own thread so your seperate question can better be seen.

Hi,

Looks like wget is installed, so installing is not needed. Maybe you want/need to configure it (man wget for location of files).

PS: which wget is probably a better way to check if a program is installed (and in your PATH).
