thanks for the response! I have kicked around some different ideas like `ln -s raznoe.shtml.html index.html' but the thing is, this whole process is an automated process, no manual intervention.
How do I always know what exactly that final/main file name will be?? I could be feeding it all different kinds of URLS like.... http://kftcsu09:6060/manual/ http://www.expert.ru http://www.expert.ru/expert/current/data/raznoe.shtml http://kftcsu09:6060/index.html http://www.aljazeera.net/science_tech/2003/9/9-13-1.htm http://us3.php.net/FAQ.php http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/results.asp?WRD=oracle&userid=2V 5SEYEENU&cds2Pid=946 this is were I start running into problems. Once again, thanks. I hope there might be someone who already solved this problem and replies to this.

Wget doesn't really have the concept of a "main file". As a workaround, you could simply `ln -s raznoe.shtml.html index.html', and index.html would point to your main file and be available on the web.
