Hi there.
Let me explain the problem:
1) I'm trying to prepare for being a mirror of www.gnu.org
(which is not the most ashamed thing to do, I suppose).
2) I'm somewhat devoted to wget and do not want to use
other software.
3) There're some redirects at www.gnu.org to other hosts
like
QC wget -r --convert-links http://netcity4.web.hinet.net/UserData/tsd04/1122-2.htm -o
test.log
QC worked. It downloaded the html and files accoicated with it.
QC But
QC wget -r --convert-links http://netcity4.web.hinet.net/UserData/tsd04/1122-3.htm -o
test.log
QC only downloaded the html file
Follow ftp is off by default, so you shouldn't need to set it
explicitly.
What might have happened in your case is that a http URL redirected*
to ftp, which was followed as a redirection, not as part of the
recursive download.
Hrvoje,
it looks like it would take much less time to
