Hi Istvan, I just wanted to some additional notes to my last response. Most scripts that are run via wget can be used with the lynx or curl command like so: lynx -dump http://domain.com/folder/script.php?dl=file curl http://domain.com/folder/script.php?dl=file If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact us. Thank you! Tim S. |

Hello Istvan, Thanks for posting your question. I'm sorry for your troubles with your cron job. I'm more than happy to assist you. In a shared environment, you security purposes, we have disabled wget from being able to be ran in a cron job. You will not be able to use wget. If you have any further questions please feel free to contact us. Thank you! Tim S. |
