First I'll test the above commands on a "normal" computer, i.e. 
black01.md.kth.se. These commands work as they should.

svn export svn://38.119.121.196/pmwiki/tags/latest pmwiki
wget http://www.pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-latest.tgz
wget http://www.pmichaud.com/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-latest.tgz
wget http://pmwiki.org/
wget http://www.pmwiki.org/
wget http://www.pmichaud.com/

Next I'll test the commands from the sever, i.e. aussie.lyx.org. Using 
Subversion with an IP address works, i.e. this worked:

	svn export svn://38.119.121.196/pmwiki/tags/latest pmwiki

However, all of the these wget commands failed:

 wget http://www.pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-latest.tgz
--17:41:34--  http://www.pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-latest.tgz
           => `pmwiki-latest.tgz'
Resolving www.pmwiki.org... failed: No such file or directory.


wget http://www.pmichaud.com/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-latest.tgz

           => `pmwiki-latest.tgz'

As for upgrading my installation, I guess my next step is to figure out 
how I can force Subversion to use the IP address instead of a domain name.
It's a step forward anyway!
