Archiving a whole public FTP host/mirror is easy:
SketchCow> I use wget -r -l 0 -np -nc ftp://ftp.underscorporn.com tar cvf 2014.01.ftp.underscorporn.com.tar ftp.underscorporn.com tar tvf 2014.01.ftp.underscorporn.com.tar > 2014.01.ftp.underscorporn.com.tar.txt
OR, use this handy dandy function to put in your .bashrc file, you can also remove the first and last line to turn it into a fancy bash script. Made by SN4T14
ftp-grab(){
target="$1"
wget -r -l 0 -np -nc "$target"
if "$target" =~ ^ftp://.*$
then
target="$(echo "$target" | cut -d '/' -f 3)"
echo "ftp"
echo "$target"
fi
tar cvf $(date +%Y).$(date +%m)."$target".tar "$target"
tar tvf $(date +%Y).$(date +%m)."$target".tar > $(date +%Y).$(date +%m)."$target".tar.txt
}
Now zip/tar it up and send to the spacious Internet Archive![1] (If you're short on space: tar --remove-files deletes the files shortly after adding them to the tar, not waiting for it to be complete, unlike zip -rm.)
