Hi Guru's

Trying to make a copy of my website to a local ubuntu server - I have very limited access ie: no shell access.

What is the best way to make a copy of my site. have ftp cli, lftp, wget ... just not sure what to use and how.

what exactly is not clear regarding 'lftp' and 'wget' ? In 'lftp', for example, look for 'mirror'.

You can do something like this with wget:
wget -r --ftp-user=usernam --ftp-password=password ftp://url-or-ip-of-your-server/html/cs

Just put the path from your FTP home to where you want to start copying.
Make sure you are in the local directory where you want this tree to start.
