WGET on CheckPoint

Just a quick post here since I've been asked about the best way of transfering the scripts I host on github to a FW. The answer of course is wget :)

It's not in the default $PATH of SPLAT/GAIA, however on every version I've looked CP has hidden it somewhere on the device.

For example:

[Expert@R75-B]# wget
-bash: wget: command not found
[Expert@R75-B]# find / -name wget
/var/tmp/CD1/linux/MiniWrapperForMajor/linux/Actions/wget
/sysimg/CPwrapper/linux/MiniWrapperForMajor/linux/Actions/wget

If you want to pull one of my scripts down directly (and assuming you've got a name server in /etc/resolv.conf...), just use the binary in one of the results from find like so:

Tada:

[Expert@R75-B]# /sysimg/CPwrapper/linux/MiniWrapperForMajor/linux/Actions/wget https://raw.github.com/craigdods/scripts/master/interface_rebuild_splat.sh
