I am trying to write a shell script which will download a file from a website say <http://xyz.com/file1.zip>.
The file is in .zip format and its size is huge, normally more than 20MB.
I searched and found that simplae way to do it is using
Code:
wget -O /home/pat <website address>
But there are 2 possible problems here:
1) As the file is very large, the session might get timed out.
2) I'll have to give id and password in order to connect to the website.
Can anyone give me some suggestion to overcome above 2 problems.
And also will this be possible using shell scripting or will I have to use perl for this? (as the file is very big)
Thanks.
