help -- how to use cronjobs to automatically download log files?

[dystemper]

i run a counter-strike source community. i am setting up psychostats, but since whb does not allow remote-sql, i cannot get the logs off my gameserver onto a mysql database on my webserver hosted on whb.

i have an idea of a workaround, where i can setup a cronjob to download off of the ftp server of my gameserver, and upload to a folder on my whb-hosted website.

any ideas on what the command would look like? i think it is a wget command, but i'm not sure how to specify an entire folder instead of a single file.

any help would be appreciated.

does whb allow wget, lftp, or rsync be run as cronjobs?

basically, i'm looking to mirror folders from 2 different servers. they are all logs in the form of plain text files.

well, i got the cronjob working... sort of.

it copied the file tree onto my whb account, but none of the files. anyone have an idea?

the cronjob command line:

wget -r ftp://username:password@75.102.27.17.../cstrike/logs/

Hey, just to mention, they have rsync too. It works great, I use it to refresh a demo of my CMS.
