FTP server - calling for hosting proposal
Posted: Sat Sep 01, 2007 2:51 pm

Hello,
We are considering opening a private FTP server for SMS Power. The FTP shall be able to host huge files (eg: full length VHS rips, etc), so something in the range of 10 GB of disk space would be good.
Only a few admins will be given write rights. Read-only logins should be made available free of hassle on this forum or to individual requesting it, but we'll try to keep it a little quiet and personal to reduce bandwidth usage (similarly to how we provide ROM images).
The service will be mapped under a smspower.org sub-domain.
Is anyone here able to provide such service for us?
Finding a computer connected on the internet with a FTP server installed is not too difficult. We're looking for something reliable that shall stay up for years, and can be backuped from time to time.
Thanks,
Omar

Let me discuss this with the guy i own a server with, and i'll see what i can do.
There's a good chance i can make you an account on the server.

Thanks for the help Steve. Nothing is yet tested/uploaded/configured. We'll get back to this and announce when it's done.
