Mirror websites with lftp
Advertisement
There are lots of methods to mirror websites, you could use tons of Gui tools or just use Curl, wget or httrack. But as usual with linux there is a simpler and/or “better” method – lftp. It works great for mirroring Apache directory listings.
Try this next time you want to mirror a website:
lftp -e "mirror -c" http://greatdomain.com/somedir/
oh and if there is “command not found” after you try it then:
for Debian based systems ( like ubuntu or debian itself )
sudo apt-get install lftp
for Rpm based ( like Centos or Fedora )
yum install lftp
for Mac OSX you could use MacPorts – http://www.macports.org
