Hey Larry, Thanks again, now i have around 3 different ways of doing this... can assure the client that all will be well, all depends now if the project is confirmed and given to us. But the info you gave me will serve me even if this project does not go through or i dont use wget for this project. Thanks for taking the time to explain the various switches, my doubts, different tips and being so helpful, i really appreciate it. Have a great day!
