The --limit-rate switch in wget is your friend. For example, to download something at 3000bps, (bits per second), do something like this: wget --limit-rate=3000 http://ftp.iinet.net.au/adsl.test This works for ftp too, and you can even specify ftp accounts by using something like this: wget --limit-rate=3000 ftp://anonymous:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/adsl.test (wget doesn't require you to specify anonymous when downloading from anonymous ftp sites though) - Chris -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
