Download the entire content of a site July 20, 2008
wget is a command line tool for downloading any object from net. It also be used to download
the entire content of a site too. Here is a example of doing so
wget -r -l0 –no-parent http://urltodowload
here,
- r = recursive
-l0= restricts the recursiveness to only 0 levels deep
–limit-rate = to mask your download somewhat, 20KB would be nice i think
-nc = for avoiding downloading linked files already downloaded
-w = to wait 4 seconds between retrievals
–random-wait = to make the -w time * 0-2
-A jpg,jpeg tells it to only save .jpg and .jpeg files
-U = user-agent
-S = print server response
http_proxy = does what you asked (note that i don’t know wheither wget might automaticly fall back on no proxy or not)
Now the wget command with all these switces -
wget -U “Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; nl; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040916″ -r -l 2 -A jpg,jpeg -nc –limit-rate=20K -w 4 –random-wait http://insertdomainhere.com/directory http_proxy http://username:passwrd@(ifneeded)yourproxy.com:port -S

To check config file syntax
httpd -t
Mysql:
pkginfo |grep mysql
pkgrm SUNW….
Switch to be used with configure scripts…..
./configure –prefix=/usr/local/mysql –localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/data –disable-maintainer-mode –with-mysqld-user=mysql –with-unix-socket-path=/tmp/mysql.sock –without-comment –with-debug –without-bench
my.cnf file …
[client]
#password = your_password
port = 3306
socket = /usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock
# Here follows entries for some specific programs
# The MySQL server
[mysqld]
user = mysql

Check mysql.default_socket = /usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock in php.ini
also check
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
