Hi folks, I've set up a cron job that uses wget to download Norton virus definitions once every day (I have a lot of windows users). The command that does it all is: wget http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/download/pages/US-N95.html/20030820-005-i32.exe What happens though is that the file is downloaded to root's home directory. What I would like to do is download it to /Public/Virusdef, AND change the name of the file to virusdef.exe, AND change the permissions on the file so that anyone can execute it. Can anyone help?

Why don't you just add 2 lines to your script? cp 20030820-005-i32.exe /Public/Virusdef/virusdef.exe chmod 0755 /Public/Virusdef/virusdef.exe
