WAG: that "*" at the end is opening multiple downloads at once? What happens if you try just one file at a time? Also, get has a way to take a list of files from a file (-i), which might work better here. You could probably make the list with something like "ls foo.* >myfile". If not, there's always something like "find . -name foo.* -exec wget {}". I'm not sure about your use of -nd with --mirror. It just seems that it won't mirror as well that way. -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' The Great Writ <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' is no more. <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
