Linux | Recursive FTP download with wget
Sunday, May 4th, 2008w*g*e*t -r ftp://username:password@host/relative_path_from_username_homedir
You need to remove the asterisks (I used that just to work around a security measure by wordpress, I guess).
The directory will be download in a local directory:
host/relative_path_from_username_homedir
retaining the remote filesystem structure
Alternatively you can use an absolute path:
w*g*e*t -r ftp://username:password@host/absolute_path
For example:
w*g*e*t -r ftp://username:password@host//var/local/data.txt
You need to remove the asterisks (I used that just to work around a security measure by wordpress, I guess).
N.B.: update - unfortunately once wget failed. I mean, it missed to download some nested directory of Smarty.
