Thanks folks,

Daniel - I had been using FileZilla to upload the whole DW tree which
was slow due to the poor upload speeds on my ISP (compared to the
downloads).

Terence - thanks for the pointer. It led me to the 2nd post here:
http://gallery.menalto.com/node/27898

My solution was to create a file (unpack.php) containing this:
<?php exec('tar -xzf dokuwiki-2006-11-06.tgz',$ret); ?>

FTP it with the .tgz to a web accessible space, then point my browser
at the unpack.php
Deleted the .php straight after, just in case.

Can't use wget this way, but saves me a few minutes and some frustration anyway.

cheers,
Ben
