[Mapserver-users] Loading data from another server

[Eric Bridger]

As Lowell suggested, wget is just the tool to download data from a URL.
To grab all the shape files at http://www.myDataServer.com/data you
could use:
wget -A shp,shx,dbf -np -nd http://www.myDataServer.com/data
which would get all files in the data directory with .shp, .shx and .dbf
extensions.
