Hi,
I am new to wget and I have "stupid" question:
If  wget can download  file with latest modified date in directory?
Which wget arguments I need to use for this task?
For example, I want to download file with latest modifed date from directory
/ftp.symantec.com/AVDEFS/norton_antivirus/xdb/

Thanks

Hi,
I imagine that you want to daily download the newest virus definitions,
is that correct?

I do something similar with the McAfee virus definitions, using a scheduled
Windows batch script that invokes wget. I do not check for the date, but
compare the file name; they are also higher with every released virus def
file.

If you are interested I can send you the batch script.

Sorry, I have to apologize - it is not quite true what I wrote above.
(McAfee has only 1 file - the latest - for download. I do the file
compare locally).

Hopefully someone else has a better idea for you.

Best regards,
Pat Willener
