Where as a torrent is a, well.. torrent[1]. The below excerpt from the wget man page about -c option does not directly or indirectly suggest what you claim. ,[ Excerpt from wget(1) ]--- | -c | --continue | Continue getting a partially-downloaded file. This is useful when you want to finish up a download started by a pre- | vious instance of Wget, or by another program. For instance: | | wget -c ftp://sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk/ls-lR.Z | | If there is a file named ls-lR.Z in the current directory, Wget will assume that it is the first portion of the remote | file, and will ask the server to continue the retrieval from an offset equal to the length of the local file. | | Note that you don't need to specify this option if you just want the current invocation of Wget to retry downloading a | file should the connection be lost midway through. This is the default behavior. -c only affects resumption of down- | loads started prior to this invocation of Wget, and whose local files are still sitting around. | | Without -c, the previous example would just download the remote file to ls-lR.Z.1, leaving the truncated ls-lR.Z file | alone. | | Beginning with Wget 1.7, if you use -c on a non-empty file, and it turns out that the server does not support contin- | ued downloading, Wget will refuse to start the download from scratch, which would effectively ruin existing contents. | If you really want the download to start from scratch, remove the file. | | Also beginning with Wget 1.7, if you use -c on a file which is of equal size as the one on the server, Wget will | refuse to download the file and print an explanatory message. The same happens when the file is smaller on the server | than locally (presumably because it was changed on the server since your last download attempt)---because ``continu- | ing'' is not meaningful, no download occurs. | | On the other side of the coin, while using -c, any file that's bigger on the server than locally will be considered an | incomplete download and only (length(remote) - length(local)) bytes will be downloaded and tacked onto the end of | the local file. This behavior can be desirable in certain cases---for instance, you can use wget -c to download just | the new portion that's been appended to a data collection or log file. | | However, if the file is bigger on the server because it's been changed, as opposed to just appended to, you'll end up | with a garbled file. Wget has no way of verifying that the local file is really a valid prefix of the remote file. | You need to be especially careful of this when using -c in conjunction with -r, since every file will be considered as | an incomplete download candidate. | | Another instance where you'll get a garbled file if you try to use -c is if you have a lame HTTP proxy that inserts a | ``transfer interrupted'' string into the local file. In the future a ``rollback'' option may be added to deal with | this case. | | Note that -c only works with FTP servers and with HTTP servers that support the Range header. ` After all the bluster, you owe teaching us how to continue an interrupted torrent download using wget. -- Manish 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmented_downloading ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

Do let us know I stated that if the same download has an existing bittorrent file then it can be done. eg. Near the end of this month most people will be downloading Ubuntu 8.04 and Fedora 9. So, after starting the download they realise the servers are heavily loaded thus giving them below optimal download speeds. Thus, they can switch over to torrents for the rest of the downloads. Bittorrent can check the file for the downloaded parts thus avoiding re-downloading them.

[ilugd] Binary Compatibility between distros
I had a request recently from a firm in Trivandrum to try to set up their software (Altair Hyperworks) on RHEL 3. I took fedora, assuming that if it worked on RHEL it would on fedora too, and with some minor tweaks in the installation script I was able to set it up on Fedora 8. So the question is, if a software (binary) works on a given distro, would it work on other distros too? If there are dependancies will we be able to figure them out without having access to the source?

Re: [ilugd] convert ?
the question is: the original partial file is a wget download - how can you continue that download with torrent? I think what Mehul is trying to say is that if the filename that the torrent client creates is exactly the same as the file that the user had been downloading with wget, then most torrent clients will take that as a base and assume that the data already 'in' the file has been downloaded in a previous session and continue downloading the rest of the data. The gnome built-in torrent client does check the file for data already downloaded while resuming a session, so Mehul's suggestion just might work. I've never written a torrent client myself to understand the protocol well enough, though. -- Sharninder ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

(1) Obvious Answer: NO - It is not possible to finish a partial download (wget) with ktorrent etc. You can if the same download has a torrent somewhere. eg. I am downloading an iso file of a certain distro using wget, if I can get the torrents of the same version of the distro I can very well use torrents to finish rest of the download. But, since the OP hasn't mentioned what is being downloaded it can't be ascertained as to whether it can be resumed using bittorrent or not. +1I did the same while downloading Fedora 8.

I switched from wget to bittorrent-curses around 3-4 times to get the best download speeds possible. It worked pretty well without any hickups. From what I have seen, torrent does a sanity check on the data it has downloaded and resumes from the point where it has left off. I.e. the only state that it sees it the data in the download. Hence, if the file you are downloading is exactly the same what the torrent has, the torrent should be able to start from where wget left off.

Either I am failing to understand the question or others are failing to understand my reply. If the OP can provide the following then it maybe clearer 1) What is he downloading? 2) Does there exist a torrent file for the same somewhere? 3) Does he require the process of how download can be continued after the torrent file has been obtained? 4) If possible, reason for switching over from wget to bittorrent. all these questions are irrelevant. Assume he has downloaded 500 mb of a 3 gb iso using wget. It is taking too long. Torrent is available. He doesnt want to waste the 500 mb he has already downloaded. So he wants to download the *remaining* 2.5 gb using torrent.

Yes, you can finish the rest of the download with torrents. You just need to obtain the torrent file of the same release of the distro either from Mandriva's website or from linuxtracker.org. Open the torrent file in your BitTorrent client. When it asks for location to download, point it to your unfinished download. You won't have to bother about filename since torrent will adher to it as it's the same release via HTTP, FTP or torrents. Now the client will check the download for the existing pieces, discard bad pieces if any and then continue with the rest of the download. ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
