[nmglug] using wget to mirror

[Tim Emerick]

I'm using wget to mirror McAfee's antivirus ftp site for my fairly large lan.
 wget seems to be re-downloading the entire site when it performs it's mirror
operation which is twice a day.

This command copies the antivirus definition folder to my local machine whic
is then shared via samba.  The command I'm using (in a cron job) is:

wget --non-verbose --progress=dot:mega --mirror --no-host-directories
--cut-dirs=1 --directory-prefix=/shares/nai ftp://ftp.nai.com/CommonUpdater/

Here is the resulting output(edited).  Does the last line indicate the total
size of the mirror or how much was actually downloaded?

23:00:03 URL: ftp://ftp.nai.com/CommonUpdater/ [1260] ->
"/shares/nai/.listing" [1]
23:00:05 URL: ftp://ftp.nai.com/CommonUpdater/44544455.upd [140503] ->
"/shares/nai/44544455.upd" [1]
23:00:07 URL: ftp://ftp.nai.com/CommonUpdater/44554456.upd [136746] ->
"/shares/nai/44554456.upd" [1]
