Here's another example: cd /home/user/html/downloads/clamav wget -N -q http://www.sanesecurity.com/clamav/phish.ndb RET=$? if [ $RET -ne "0" ]; then echo "wget phish.db failed" else touch /home/user/phishdb.done fi I put that on a (twice daily) cron and point other users/servers to the url associated with /home/user/html/downloads/clamav Takes a load off sanesecurity.com ;-) If it fails I get an email from cron and I've got a timestamped file telling me when it last ran successfully. > > Cheers, > > Steve > > > > _______________________________________________ > http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html -- ----------------- Bob Hutchinson Midwales dot com ----------------- _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
