I think you can do it with ncftp and some scripting. Normally, you can use ncftp like a normal ftp, but you can also pass a recursive option (ie: `mget -r *`). You can write a script and pass appropriate commands, kind of like this:
#!/bin/sh ncftp -u <username> <ftp.servername.serverdomain> <<EOF <password> bin mget -r / quit EOF Of course, you'll need ncftp installed, and make the script file executable. Be careful about your password being in the open. -Mark On Thu, 28 Feb 2002, Ganesh S wrote: > Hi, > I have a linux machine to which i would like to mirror a private ftp site on > a nightly basis.
