Hi Merlin,

Have you tried "wget -c" to resume an interrupted download? You can put the
command inside an infinite loop that will keep retrying even if the
connection is interrupted when you are not watching (say, overnight). The
following should work:

while (true) ; do wget -c -T 60
ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/freesurfer/5.1.0/freesurfer-Linux-centos4-stable-pub-v5.1.0.tar.gz;
sleep 600 ; done

If it doesn't receive data for 60 seconds, it stops, sleeps for 10 min, and
tries automatically again. When the download is complete, it will continue
trying again every 10 min until you press Ctrl+C, but since the file will
already be complete, it will do nothing, so it's fine.

Hope this helps!

All the best,

Anderson
