Hello,
I am trying to start a "transloading" and webhosting company. This will allow users to login via apache .htaccess type authentication and then be able to put a url of a file into a form and the script will go get that file, download it to the webserver into their html directory and then be available for world access. I have the security setup (apache athentication) and I can get their username with env(REMOTE_USER) but I dont' know what to do from here. I know I want to use "wget" to get the file, but i can't seem to get it to work in a script. I am a linux admin, but don't know perl. How can I log in the http user into linux and go get that file with wget so it will go in their home directory, which will be their html directory. Can someone please get me started?
Thanks in advance
Jeff
