i advertised the hosting i was giving over at Volitionwatch, and in the last week i must've gotten at least 30 emails from people wanting the hosting. i originally intended not to advertise within the HLP community, because of some of the sobs in this place, but since i'm doing it for VW i want HLPers to have equal opportunity :nod :)
100 MB for whatever you want... images, webpages, etc.
just give me a username, password (you can email me or PM me) and that's it! the only thing you need to be famliar with is FTP clients, and please don't leech the bandwidth (i.e. upload a popular song/movie/file and link to it on a popular site) that's all the requirements.
if you're not interested, then please don't post here, ok? i know some of you like making life unpleasant for other people, but let's not, ok?
-
Already PMed you, but just for the record:
Bring it up. ;)
-
Server specs?
File execution limitations?
-
nuclear, check your PM inbox :)
server specs are irrelevant
it's on a fiber-optic connection
supports all (well-known) file types, such as CGI perl asp java php etc. and if there's one it doesn't let me know and we'll install it.
-
EDIT: Big idiot of me... Figured out. :D
-
Stealth, I've PM'd you. Glad you gave HLP a second chance. ;)

I'd quite like a spot of hostage, as it's unethical to use the TVWP sever for all my crap.
Thanks.:)
-
hey Petrach i'm leaving to see the matrix now, i'll do it as soon as i get home, ok? (ETA: 4 hours)
-
Stealth, will you still have this offer in about a month? I don't need it at the moment but I could probably use it later since I will need a place to put some information/images of some of my lego stuff.
-
yeah, probably :)
-
What brilliant timng you have. Hunter hasn't got sectorfiles up yet, and I need to get the 35 meg OR VP out to the new FREDders. Consider yourself PMed :)

:lol: Sorry, it's just that... you sound so serious when you say that. I can't talk about lego without cracking up. :)
I don't need hosting, Stealth. But I want to stop by to encourage you. It's a great thing you're doing... always thought so from the start. :yes:
-
If only there were more people in the world (especially the world of software) that were so generous.:)
-
alright. just for reference (my reference) i've also given hosting to kode, Ryx, and kasperl. anyone else?

Hey BW feel free to go ahead with that for now.. I still need extra funds for sectorfiles. I wish everyone would chip in some dough ! ;)

I asked him if I could put my furry pr0n collection there, and he told me to feel free to put anything, so yeah, I guess :D
jokes aside, yeah, I'd like to thank him again, coz it's damn useful ( even more since I found a workaround about my uploading pb ).

Good, my little brother can finally put his *cough*secret*cough* pr0n collection somewhere else then on my HD... It limits my room for pr0n :p
I think I'm going to embarrass my little brother by telling him I found his secret stash ;7 FUN!
:D :hopping: :D

Okay, I'm going to have to go with Sandwich here... Tiara, uhhh, I guess you'll enjoy married life then. :p
Ahem, and back to thread topic. *pats Stealth on the back again* If I have any need for hosting (like if I suddenly learn how to draw pictures... heh), you'll be the first person I turn to. :nod: Btw, what domain name will it appear under? I must have missed that... :nervous:
-
:lol: Sorry, it's just that... you sound so serious when you say that. I can't talk about lego without cracking up. :)
Actually I take my lego quite seriously. :D My room is completely filled with all the models and stuff I have collected over the years and I have a couple of projects I am working on as well. Never grew out of it and never will. :D

Well, I just got a new job, but the Aussie Dollar's pretty god damned ordinary right about now - I might be able to help you out to some extent though - how much do you need in total?
BTW, to pretend this is on topic, erm, thanks for the hostage Stealth :) the VP is uploaded and ready to go.

uhm, stealth, what's the FTP i should FTP to?

If someone feels they should wait that is up to them Venom.
Hey, I like Legos! And Sex! Not at the same time ! :-P

Choosing Lego over sex... I can see that you guys aren't from any country even remotely like Holland :p
"Wanna have sex?"
"Nah, gotta finish my Lego Deimos first"

2) WHAT???? you've never tried doing both at the same time?!? :lol:
-
Why is everything on here turning into relationships and sex? :p
Yay for free will to choose either sex before or after marriage.
Especially teh free will to choose before ;7

Ok, guys, how this thread got from hosting to sex is a mystery to me but lets not go on and keep it on-topic. Make a "sex-thread" (:p) if ya wanna continue this discussion.
-
Well.. this is a family place so better tone it down :P
There is a password rants forum at F2S for all your rant cravings.. sex and anything.... must be over 14 though...:P

debian owns. I use it a little at home.

Eh, FYI, you can also get a free account yourself instead of giving Stealth your pw and thus having to change it :p
Stealth, why didn't you just give the link to http://www.swooh.com ?
-
lesse... he's an admin there, and they set up the accounts, so...
I don't think it'd matter that much to him either.

uhhhhh because i get the form, and i see your password anyway ;)
the form doesn't automatically add you, one of us has to do it... we SSH the server and add you... so the form sends the information to us (me) and then we add you, so we see your password anyway :D
hehehe, you thought i stumbled upon it and tried to make it look like I was giving the hosting when i wasn't, right? :)
-
stealth,can you plz give me the name of the ftp, ftp.swooh.com gives an DNS error.
edit, got it, i removed the ftp bit and it worked
now, my username seems good, but thepass get;s rejected.
i'm shure i didn't make any typo's
-
kasperl, get an FTP CLIENT. i recommend CUTE FTP. there you can access it :)

i use leech ftp, works good, i can acces the server now, but the pass get's rejected, and im sure im not the one making the typo's

you're using the following info:
username: kode
password *you have it*
port: 21

I had a similiar problem, with FTP voyager, I got cute FTP and it worked.

btw, do you want passv on or off?
edit:
can you get on MSN? tha way we can see if you made a typo in the pass.
-
ok, i'll try
actually, to everyone, just for future reference... it's easier if you PM me if you want an account rather than filling in the form on swooh.com

ok, got in, can ftp, now i want to setup PHPBB2, where do i find all this info?

Hey, I never said i'd choose Legos over sex! Just that, until I'm married, sex is out of the question. I heavily doubt that I'd turn my wife down over building something with Legos when the time comes, though - I may be "morally upright" or whatever, but I ain't crazy. :p

Personally, I think its moronic not to have sex before marriage :p But I won't stop you if its what you want :)

Amen Sandwich! It's very hard to find a strong and true Christian nowadays.
I too have never had sex before and don't plan to until I'm married (and then only with my wife). good to see that some people still have morals :)
now let's keep this On topic ;)
-
ARGH! I hate it when people do that ****, stealth. Your morals are NOT, I repeat ARE NOT, my morals.
I don't care what you want to do with your life. For all I care you go and live in celibacy. If I want to have sex, I have sex. That doesn't mean I have no morals. So shut up.

i never said you didn't have morals. i was talking between myself and Sandwich, not to you. OUR morals are the same... that's why i said it.
i don't care if you're a real slut and go have sex 4 times a day with different people, that's your life, do with it as you will, i was refering to people who claim to be "true christians" but have sex with everyone they meet.
no seriously, i was talking to Sandwich, not to anyone else, so don't get offended by what i said.
now PLEASE guys, PLEASE keep this on-topic... i'd hate to have it closed and someone who wants hosting misses out.

First of all... never... anyone who needs a gun that big is compensating for "something".
Errrr... Ok... j/k... I said I was just kidding... would you mind pointing that gun back at an0n? Yes? good, thx.
Nah, don't need 100MB as I currently still have 2 gigs of webspace on several other accounts that I just set up :)
-

Exactly, so if I want to suicide-bomb, I suicide-bomb. That doesn't mean I have no morals. :D (although this actually makes perfect sense ;7)
feh, sex is probably the most idiotic thing in the world anyway. :p
Anyway, Stealth, I think I might as well just sign up for this now even if I don't have to use the space immediately, since I just noticed the first-come/first-serve thing in your signature. Need to go somewhere at the moment but I will drop you a PM in a few hours.

plz tell me you guys do run MySQL.

Stealth, think you could set me up with an account?
I don't really have a solid use for one now, but I'm going to be making a Homeworld 2 armada/clan when it comes out, might as well start on a webpage now. And by the time it comes out your server will probably be full... so, I'll PM you. In the meantime I can fill it up with renders :p

PHP is supported though, as is ASP, CGI, etc. mySQL is installed, we're just having some problems with it at the moment.

Originally posted by Stealth

I'll agree with you on PHP(that works fine for me...) but CGI definately does not(check the link vyper posted if u want, maybe you have cgi disabled under the peon accounts)... I switched over to nPHP for a news script... not as good as newspro imo but still good.
The indexing could use a index.php setting as a main page though, as it is I have to have an index.html redirect the browser to index.php on my site... works that way but still...
I'm not complaining, I'm very grateful for this, just stating some improvements that could be made :)

you can put up whatever you want. images, webpages, anything.
vyper: i'll check into your problem... we're also trying to use yabb (i'm not the one working with it though)
http://www.swooh.com/bbs/yabb/
but i'm not sure (i know nothing about CGI) but i think you have to have a HTML file (template.html) call the CGI file. that doesn't make sense though, because like you say, linking to the CGI file should work. i'll definatly lookinto it
-
fun. I PMed you username and password

ok, wtf?

BTW, an0n, i downloaded CuteCast, and it sounds good, but without FTP, i can't try it.
edit:
FTP is backup again

CGI on?
uhm, then i just did something wrong:
http://www.swooh.com/peon/kasperl/forum/cutecast/setup.cgi

ftp is down, again.

up

FTP will go up and down sporadically... occasoinally it's taken down when one of us has to do something to it or something

ok, that's understandable.
but can you plz give me some more help on installing cutecast?
the only other forum i installed was PHPbb and that was by using a wizard :o
-
hey no clue man... check the help files?

well,i tried, it said something about CHMOD, but i haven't got a clue what that is.

that's the problem right there...
while in your ftp app, right click the file you are going to chmod after you've uploaded them.
should be an option to chmod them there. then you put in those numbers in a text box or something there.
-
uhm, where the **** is that setting in Leechftp?
-
I was trying to set up the same thing... where is the "perl path"?
-
"set attributes" under the right click menu.
-
done, but still no effect.
i even followed the manual, but wtf is a perl path and were do i find it?
-
I think its a path to a file on the server that the message board needs to use, don't know what the path is though. You put the path in the ini file for the boards i think. Stealth, do you know what(or where) a perl path is? :)
