mirror http dir?

[hop-frog]

mirrordir only wants ftp sites

wget doesn't support wildcards in http

so how can I mirror a site/directory?

:D Just use the mirror flag with wget :Dwget -m http://linuxnewbie.org/

For broken downloads, add the continue flag -c

wget is cool:cool:

info wget
man wget

that isn't downloading the stuff right. it created the directories, but inside them they created html-like files --like if you go to an ftp directory and just download the page that has the links on it, but not actually downloading those links.

I'm trying to copy some of the icons here:
http://www.sct.gu.edu.au/~anthony/icons/desc/Icons.html

[fancypiper]

Try wget -m http://www.sct.gu.edu.au/~anthony/

You may be mirroring too deep in the path.

It's working here.
