So far I've been using wget as it's very simple: dump a bunch of ftp/http/etc URLs on the command line or into some file, call wget, done. Well until one of the files is >2GB. If it didn't even start I wouldn't say anything, if it downloaded 2GB and then exited stage left I wouldn't care either, but no, wget downloads 2GB, poops itself, deletes all the downloaded 2GB, and starts again from the zero bytes mark. Grrr.
Is there something better? lftp was mentioned, but it needs fuffling with stupid ftp commands, ie isn't as user friendly. Thanks, Volker -- Volker Kuhlmann is possibly list0570 with the domain in header http://volker.dnsalias.net/ Please do not CC list postings to me.
