wget -S -m -nH ftp://username:password@REMOTE_HOST_IP
On server A, this results in a full download of the files on the REMOTE_HOST_IP. However, the exact same command on server B results merely in a index.html file displaying a listing of what's on REMOTE_HOST_IP, but it does not download the files itself...
Any ideas?
There is not necessarily a correspondence between URLs and file system directories, though.
I have to assume that the files (other than index.html) are in some other locations, and there is some URL redirection going-on in the HTTP server configuration.
Another possibility is that the FTP account does not have permission to access the files, save for index.html.
I note that you are using FTP to access the site. FTP will access a certain file system directory on the disk, and it's descendants.There is not necessarily a correspondence between URLs and file system directories, though.
Yep, i use FTP. But like i said, the exact same command works 100% fine when executed from another server.

Not sure I can follow what you mean...

Permission should be o.k., since the exact same user/pass combination is used when the wget command is executed from anoter server...

Ah. I misunderstood. I thought you were backing up two different sites. You're backing up one site to two different backup servers.

Yup... Sorry for the mixup. Any idea though?
