hello everybody, and thankyou for all of the assistance to my recent questions. I have yet another question. I am trying to download debian packages from an ftp site with ncftp or wget. I am having a problem in getting files that are symlinked to other places. I cannot for the life of me find out what flag to turn on or off to get ncftp or wget to follow symlinks. If anyone could and/or would help I would greatly appreciated it. Paul
