Spegla is a mirror program for FTP sites. It was written because I
|
||
|
couldn't find any fast mirroring program for big mirrors. It makes a
|
||
|
complete mirror of a FTP area.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Spegla only take one command-line parameter, the config file. These
|
||
|
parameters can be specified in it:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- localdir where the mirror should go on your machine.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- remotedir directory at the FTP server.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- username user to log in as i.e. anonymous.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- password password to use i.e. your email address.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- host FTP server.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- retries how many retries before quit. Defaults to 20.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- retrytime how many seconds to wait before log in again after
|
||
|
a timeout. Defaults to 150.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- timeout how many seconds to wait to timeout. Defaults to 150.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- skipdir which directories to ignore remote and local, can be
|
||
|
several but only one per row.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- dirlink not used for now.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- logfile logfile, can be a file, stdout or stderr. Defaults
|
||
|
to stdout.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Blank lines and text after '#' are ignored.
|
||
|

|
||
|
retries = 300 # busy ftp server and lots of files.
|
||

# Takes lots of hours to complete
|
||
|
# and don't want to quit when we are
|
||
|
# almost finished.
|
||
|
retrytime = 120 # if network goes down don't consume
