Run this from cron:

   [root at cerberus bin]# cat get-sav-updates.sh
   #!/bin/sh

   cd /var/spool/sophos-updates

   ls -l *.ide > before.list

   # Get the latest list of IDE files
   rm -f list.txt
   wget -q http://www.sophos.com/downloads/ide/list.txt

   # Get any new or updated IDEs in the list
   if [ -f list.txt ] ; then
      wget -q -c -N `cat list.txt`
   fi

   # delete any IDE files older than 60 days
   rm -f `find . -name \*.ide -mtime +60`

   # Make a nice diff as a summary of the job
   ls -l *.ide > after.list
   diff before.list after.list
   rm -f before.list after.list list.txt

The output shows you what was downloaded and deleted.

Later,
