3ed354ecf1834c4692971b73445bc61f64208481b96385e571866c06efc8b09c is a dir named test containing two files, file1.txt and file2.txt.

I can run ant file download 3ed354ecf1834c4692971b73445bc61f64208481b96385e571866c06efc8b09c . to retrieve the directory and that’s good.

I’d like to be able to run ant file download 3ed354ecf1834c4692971b73445bc61f64208481b96385e571866c06efc8b09c/file1.txt . to retrieve file1.txt, just as with the web we can make a direct GET for https://1.2.3.4/file1.txt.

What do others think?

I’m not able to download that dir. Connectivity issues again it seems. (Autonomi Client v0.3.2).

ant file download 3ed354ecf1834c4692971b73445bc61f64208481b96385e571866c06efc8b09c .

No that is not correct, even though it is…

Not fair. Why can’t I play? Here’s the tail of the client log if anyone’s interested. Relevant line probably: External address manager is disabled for this node.
