Ftp downloads
I have a small, but obvious question. Most updates use ftp sites. Is ther any way you can download a directory or tree without having to click on every link.
Any help would be greatfully
Of course. You can use an FTP client like ncftp, which has an option to get a whole tree in one go. For instance (in ncftp, after having connected to the server you want to download from):[code:1]
get -R /pub/blah/stuff/*[/code:1]
Or you can install a graphical FTP client such as KBear. I am sure that has a facility to download a whole directory in one go.
I know you can do this within your own network but how do you do it to a web site, ie how do you "connect to the server".
For example the rpm ftp site ftp://ftp.rpm.org/pub/rpm/dist/rpm-4.1.x/
How do you connect to site? I have done this before through windoze but only connecting via server name or ip-never on the internet
Thx
If you want to copy all content just open the URL in konqueror filemanager mode.
select all and choose copy
open a second kony in filemanager mode, change to/create destination dir, choose paste.
Like any local filetransfer.
