Sluggers,
Can someone please put me out of my misery?
I had wget working but I seem to have lost the plot.
I just want to get the contents of a directory, but I always just
seem to get nothing.
It did work once and then I lost the command line I had.
All I want to be able to do is mirror some files from an ftp server
to a local directory.
Can someone please help - I don't want anything fancy, just the files.
I think I must've blown a brain fuse over this one - I just can't
get it to work! Here's what I have so far.... The options I've used
are the last ones that actually worked, now nothing.....
Everything works but nothing is downloaded:
/usr/local/bin/wget --cache=off -l 1 -m ftp://ftp.some.com/pub/files/version4/
--16:56:49-- ftp://ftp.some.com/pub//files/version4/
=> `.listing'
