[smokeping-users] Re: Curl probe only measures primary target, not the redirects

[Rob de Jong]

Update:

I forgot to mention that I do get the right measurement when I run the 
command in a shell.
The result looks like:

Command
Curl progress meter
Result like 0.033
HTML dump of everything
Result like 7.2 (Which is about right)

Thanks,

Rob
