Introduction
The wget command can be used to download files and directories through FTP. This method is useful for downloading backup files or directories such as .rvsitebuilder.
Prerequisites
- FTP server access
- Valid FTP username and password
- wget package is installed on the server
Implementation
wget + ftp download syntax
You can download it in any way. I used an FTP download.
- Syntax:
wget -r ftp://USERNAME:PASSWORD@IPADDRESS/.rvsitebuilder - Example:
wget -r ftp://hemanth:qweqwe@1.1.1.1/.rvsitebuilder - All the RVsitebuilder files will be downloaded.
Conclusion
Using wget with FTP syntax allows recursive downloading of directories and files directly from a remote FTP server.
