Hello,
The PC world.
I have used 'wget' over several days to download a multi-gigabyte
database. Now the administrators of the DB would update files, which
wget can track, by modification dates I presume. However when they
delete files, 'orphaned' files are left on the destination system. Is
there some method for continuously synchronizing the destination
directories with the source directories as the reference normal source?
Something like rsync in the UNIX world!
Thanks
You would need to detect that the files were deleted. The right solution
seems to be that those administators allow rsync access to that folder.
(Note that there are rsync versions for Windows). There is some open bug
about adding a delete option, but that would only work for ftp anyway.
