[Dxspider-support] Some examples. Very personal

[HB9DHG Fulvio]

Dear All,

I believe this line is incorrect:

0 1 * * * spawn("cd /tmp; wget -qN *ftp:*//ftp.w1nr.net/usdbraw.gz;
/spider/perl/create_usdb.pl usdbraw.gz")


Here is the corrected version using *http://* instead of *ftp://* (at least
on my Fedora 43):

0 1 * * * spawn("cd /tmp; wget -qN *http:*//ftp.w1nr.net/usdbraw.gz
<http://ftp.w1nr.net/usdbraw.gz>; /spider/perl/create_usdb.pl usdbraw.gz")

Best regards,

HB9DHG Fulvio
