Sorry, I had given you a false advice. This timestamping option -N is only neccessary for additional features with timestamping. I have it always on, therefore I had totally forgotten that the basic feature you asked for is already the default and you need no special parameter for it. This feature uses the HHTP-Header-Line "Last-Modified:" from the server. Most servers send this these days, but there are a few which don't (it it not mandatory). You can get more information from wget for such problematic cases and see these internals when you run it with debug-option -d Best regards, J.Roderburg
