I tried to run a shell script that uses the command "curl" and it fails with the error curl: command not found.

According to XN the package libcurl3 is installed. I used the file finder and it could only find two folders named curl in usr/include and usr/share but no actual file. Unfortunately the XN servers appear to be down, so I can't try removing it and installing it again.

Any idea what to do in the circumstances?

Xandros Networks is indeed down, and has been for some time. I've reported this to Xandros Support to no avail.

You can, however, still install programs using Synaptic instead of XN. You can find instructions to install Synaptic here:

You should be able to install curl using Synaptic.

Thanks, Jim. I didn't think of trying that.
