I started playing with streamripper and it works pretty well. There's a certain show I've discoverd that broadcasts from 1:00-5:00 AM every night. I'd like to record the show so I can listen to it at work during the day. I need to code a bash script & cron job to the following:
- connect to the internet via my 1 cable modem by opening a web browser (lynx?) and starting the dialup. I need to click the 'connect' button on the modems html control page. I can't startup the cable modem manually and just leave it on since it will drop after 20 minutes of inactivity
- start to record the broadcast and continue for 4 hours. I know the streamripper syntax for this
- hangup the modem and shutdown

I'm a little weak on my bash scripting and cron job setups

Thanks in advance
