You *might* be able to get PHP to do something like: <?php exec('wget $foo &'); exec('wget $bar &'); ?> and then both wget calls will be in parallel... Can I ask a stupid question? Why the heck don't you just fire up FTP and do it instead of wasting time writing a PHP application to do it?... Are you not allowed SSH/telnet to either server? Maybe you could just ask the admin on the new server to do the FTP for you. It's going to be much less hassle that way. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
