Retrieve a file from https with command line

Post by rafinakar »

Hello,

Can I retrieve a file thru Wget.exe Command Line from wing ftp - HTTPS configured?
can I login thru dos command, I want to make a batch file for automatic downloading for my HTTPS customers.
I'm testing right now the demo version for my company requirements...


Thanks in advance,
Rafi.

No, I think it is impossible, because Wing FTP Server is not a pure HTTP Server, you must login with the web client, then download the files. So I suggest you download files through FTP client.

"download files through FTP client" just means downloading via FTP protocol, I guess wget support FTP protocol:
ftp://username:password@serverip/file" rel="nofollow
