We've been wanting to download a complete PostNuke website and have it written onto a CD, as per the client's requirement. We've faced several issues, such as continuous never ending downloads - the overall website is about 4 GB in space, but downloads, using some 3rd party software, on all occasions has been more than 4GB.
Does anyone have any case study of such a download, and if yes, what tools did you use?
Thanks,
Rahul Dewan

Have you tried using the tool HTTrack? I have used that several years ago and it seemed to do a fine job. Since it is still developed it might be what you are looking for.

What about Rsync?
I usually dump the SQL (using mysqldump) and use Rsync over SSH to sync my site. There's no limit to the size or anything that way. May want to exclude xanthia/compiled and other cache directories though.
If you don't have ssh, you could try a little util called cgitelnet, but it is inherently insecure and should be deleted from the server immediately after use. Using it rules out rsync, but you could still use tar and then ftp the compressed archive.
