Hmm. The forum requires you to login to download the file...

I've forgotten I have added this feature because some punk in the past created thousands of connections to download the file to wipe out the monthly bandwidth.  A denial of service attack.

Will update the wiki to not use wget or curl to download the files. You still can do this if u put in the correct headers with the token. Download from the browser, and then manually transfer it over.

Trying to do a manual transfer from windows 10 to pi4 using wscp. Waht folder do I transfer the installer to because the os is saying it can't find the file when I try to run it ?

Transfer SnakeOil installer to your home folder using WinSCP. Then use Putty to SSH into Pi, and run command sudo bash snakeoil-installer-1.2.0-armv7l.sh

BTW, if you are using Rasbian (Buster) as your underlying OS you might have to install Samba seperately as the installer froze for me while trying to do just that. 
 
Code:
sudo apt-get install samba samba-common-bin

If using Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS, all went fine for me.

It didn't freeze, just that it's taking a loooonggg time to install Samba.  Bored

Just have to be patient and wait it out and all will be good.
