P.S.- I now have 3 locations...the upload speeds are 3000/768/256, and I
will probably be working on contacting some customers of mine and asking if
they wouldn't mind contributing some of their bandwidth.  If so, then I will
be able to (finally) use some of those old computers that I have in my
basement...YAY!

K, im very limited on my knowledge of setting up things of this sort...still
mainly a windoze kid, but trying my hand in different distros of linux.  I
gave up on trying to pull all the files off the server as-is when it took 3
hours to simply list everything in the dir's...if someone could set me with
either a list of specific files you want me to have available such as
high-use or large files or a .tar of all the files or even set up a time
when I can come by with a drive to transfer the files off the server, then
we can move forward from there.  Just drop me a line at rob at fauls.com. Also,
as a note, I am changing my ale subscription from this address to
ale at fauls.com as of whenever that account gets activated.

Running a tracker and seeder is something that I can do on the ftp
server.  I have used it as a client/seeder for a few things in the
past.  I'll get it set up and people can make torrents against it, but
I will restrict it to only allow known torrents to keep others from
just leeching on.

that's
&gt; the way you want to go about it, just let me know. Also, if an admin could
&gt; get in touch with me directly, we can try and figure out and admin
procedure
&gt; for my mirroring.

&gt; Lol, in that case, then I can also make available a couple low-bandwidth
&gt; lines that I have...finally, I can test out my florida upload!  If one of
&gt; the guys that's directly involved could drop me a line and let me know
what
&gt; all you guys want me to load or if I should just mirror your ftp, I will
set
&gt; things up.

&gt; That is a perfect addition to a bittorrent stream.
&gt;
&gt; If ftp.ale.org starts supporting bittorrent downloads and runs the
&gt; tracker, then secondary servers like the below simply aggregate into
&gt; the overall swarm bandwidth.  When they are  online others can get
&gt; file segments from the secondary servers.  If they go offline, it
&gt; simply reduces the bandwidth of the swarm until the come back online.

&gt; &gt; Michael,
&gt; &gt; I wanted to say thanks for the service you provide for all of us.  I use
&gt; &gt; ftp.ale.org for SUSE security updates all the time,
&gt; &gt; and occasionally for software installation sources for Yast2 in SUSE.
&gt; &gt; I'd love to see the pub/projects/Mozilla directories
&gt; &gt; on the ftp.suse.com server mirrored on ftp.ale.org sometime if that is
&gt; &gt; possible.
&gt; &gt; Merry Christmas,
&gt; &gt; Dow

&gt; &gt; &gt;I instituted a new max user limit on the ftp daemon on ftp.ale.org.  I
&gt; &gt; &gt;did this because it's the .iso downloads that are really taking up the
&gt; &gt; &gt;most bandwidth.  I also redirect .isos on the http port to the ftp
&gt; &gt; &gt;port so that all .isos will go over ftp.
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;I think this will increase the overall transfer rate at which people
&gt; &gt; &gt;download on the server given that they can connect to it in the first
&gt; &gt; &gt;place via ftp (I got over 1mbyte/s or 1000kb/s on my work connection).
&gt; &gt; &gt; I've already noticed that it does sit at about the max users on ftp,
&gt; &gt; &gt;but also hovers close to the rate cap on it.
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;Overall http transfers are real fast and if you're patient ftp
&gt; &gt; &gt;transfers are really fast as well.
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;I will continue to keep an eye on it to see if I can raise the max
users
&gt; &gt; again.
