Use wget ... It was part of 5.1. If you don't have it just download the rpm
for wget and you can do..

wget -m ftp://updates.redhat.com/yada..yada/

It'll mirror from yada..yada as deep as it gets. I use it to mirror the
updates directory to my machine so I always have all the updates in case
friends need them.

Is there a utility that I can use to ftp the entire directory structure in
one command rather than having to manually create directories, do mgets,
etc?  It would be great to be able to get a copy of the entire image as well
rather than having to deal with the symbolic links.  Is there an easy way to
deal with this?

I'm not sure if this constitutes the "full version."  But I do know that I
found much more of a tree on
ftp.computer-planet.com/pub/mirrors/redhat/redhat-5.2/*

Hope this helps,

robert

If I download the entire set of RPMs from:

ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/linux/redhat/redhat-5.2/i386/RedHat/RPMS/

does this constitute the complete Redhat 5.2 and if so does anybody know
how to install all of it?

Thanks,
