Would somebody please point me to a solid FTP site mirroring script?
I know of two: Lee McLoughlin's "mirror", written in Perl, is a highly configurable FTP mirror. Features include recursive subdirectory fetching, regular expression include/exclude filter, on the fly compression. Get it from ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/. GNU "wget", written in C, can do FTP and HTTP mirroring. Features include recursive subdirectory fetching (for FTP), recursive link following (for HTTP/HTML), limited include/exclude filter, converting embedded references in HTML documents from absolute to relative URLs. Get it from ftp://ftp.gnu.ai.mit.edu/. --apb (Alan Barrett)
