Hello,

I have followed the ticket which explains how to use aria2 to download from "random".site.com/file.zip and created a netrc file in my user directory
aria2c is in this directory too.

i try to use aria2c like this

C:\Users\admin>aria2c.exe http://site.com/file.zip

with no success

I also tried to rename netrc to .netrc but same result

netrc structure
machine .site.com
login MYLOGIN
password MYPASS

Any help appreciated thx :)

    aria2 checks permission of .netrc and if it is not 600, it refuses to use the file.
    Since there is no permission in Windows, aria2 always refuses to use .netrc under Windows.
    I'll remove this permission check from Windows build in the next release.

    Thank you Mr. Tujikawa for your response,
    so I guess I will have to wait until using this feature on windows.

    Best regards
