Maybe you can use at and wget. Wget doesn't download in chuncks , but if
the download gets interupted, you can use the -c option to continue
downloading from where it stoped.
Example:
$ echo wget ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/redhat-6.1/iso/6.1-i386.iso
-o logfile | at midnight saturday
Make sure to replace
"ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/redhat-6.1/iso/6.1-i386.iso" with
something else. :-)
If the server supports rsync it might be a better alternative than ftp.
