(w)get web server's directories + bash script

Hi everyone.

I need to write a script which will download files/folders (a huge collection) to the local file server (centOS 4.4 Server),
and check regularly (every 6 hours or so if any new files are present, or if the old ones were modified to update contents).

Any insights on how to tackle this problem is greatly appreciated.

Thx.

NAME
bup-server - the server side of the bup client-server relationship SYNOPSIS
bup server DESCRIPTION
bup server is the server side of a remote bup session. If you use bup-split(1) or bup-save(1) with the -r option, they will ssh to the remote server and run bup server to receive the transmitted objects. There is normally no reason to run bup server yourself. MODES
smart In this mode, the server checks each incoming object against the idx files in its repository. If any object already exists, it tells the client about the idx file it was found in, allowing the client to download that idx and avoid sending duplicate data. This is bup-server's default mode. dumb In this mode, the server will not check its local index before writing an object. To avoid writing duplicate objects, the server will tell the client to download all of its .idx files at the start of the session. This mode is useful on low powered server hard- ware (ie router/slow NAS). FILES
$BUP_DIR/bup-dumb-server Activate dumb server mode, as discussed above. This file is not created by default in new repositories. SEE ALSO
bup-save(1), bup-split(1) BUP
Part of the bup(1) suite. AUTHORS
