Hello,
I hope someone can help me. I don't know much about wget, so I need help with downloading a file on the internet.
I need to download this file every 30 minutes into a directory on my computer.
Each new download can overwrite the previously downloaded file.
This needs to be automatic (ie I don't want the command prompt open, and I don't want to enter a command more than once - ever)
First, can this be done with wget?
If so, could you give me the appropriate command to do this?
I am successful at downloading the file and overwriting it in my directory, but it won't keep doing it automatically. Here is what I am using as a command:
wget --wait=1800 -–output-document=C:\MoteMDM\BBRT\QlogDB.mdb “http://www.mote.org/~jhillier/FDA&CS/MDB_Files/QlogDB.mdb”;
The file only downloads once, and won't download again after every 1800 seconds????
Thanks, Chris

I am trying to use wget to retrieve a file from an OpenVMS server but have been unable to make wget to process a path with a volume name in it. For example:
disk:[directory.subdirectory]filename
How would I go about entering this type of path in a way that wget can understand?
