johnny1488 1 #1 December 2, 2002 Im in trouble now. I've used this page before but now it tells me I need a password to enter and see no signs of being able to create one. Any tricks for me. Please help support my addiction of seeing every possible second of skydiving footage I can, except for the ones that take longer then 43 seconds to download.

AndyMan 7 #2 December 2, 2002 It works fine for me. I've put a few caps in place to try to manage bandwidth without just capping the per user transfer rate. The one I suspect you're running up against is a 3 user per IP limit. This means 3 connections per person at home or on a dialup, or 3 people at your company, or school as most organizations show up as 1 IP. If you're using IE as your FTP client, it takes any "access denied" error message as a "access denied until you give me the right password" message - hence the login box. Bad IE. No donut. If you're getting login boxes, make sure you don't have extra windows sitting idle. If you're still having problems, PM me your IP address and I"ll check the logs. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RevJim 0 #3 December 2, 2002 logs me in just fine..... Try this: ftp://www.skydivingmovies.com/ edit: Thanks Andy. Ya beat me to this one. p.s. Thinking about dumping my cable modem, even though I get such high speeds (eventually they're gonna catch on). What do you think about the wireless standard based on utilizing both the 2400 and 5725 MHz bands? They are offereing 1024k in both directions for 10 bucks a month less than I'm paying now.....It's your life, live it!

Was I downloading or viewing streaming? If you were juct left clicking, you were most likely streaming from his server. Not good Luke. There was a disturbance in the force, and you did it! Seriously, whenever you are on an ftp site, DOWNLOAD. Right Click! DO NOT LEFT CLICK! It wastes bandwidth!It's your life, live it!

johnny1488 1 #8 December 2, 2002 so I was wasting other peoples ability to see videos? And when I download I dont do that? Johnny --"This ain't no book club, we're all gonna die!" Mike Rome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RevJim 0 #9 December 2, 2002 When you right click and download, the ftp server maxes out your bandwidth to download the file. When it's done, it's done. If you stream, the player controls the buffer, downloading what it needs to keep the video going. this problem is compounded when you pause, or attempt to back up. it resends the download request at the point you choose. Just download it, play it to you hearts content, and delete it if you no longer want it.It's your life, live it!

pilotdave 0 #16 December 3, 2002 They dont let me play with the complicated compluters anymore. Now i just sit on my ass and move files every once in a while when i get around to it. Speaking of that, i'll move some new ones soon to wherever they belong. On the bright side I can start downloading some of the bigger files i havent seen yet. Just installed my new 60 gig hard drive and CD burner (which was $10 at staples last friday at 7 am). Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pilotdave 0 #22 December 3, 2002 OOH good idea. I'm gonna replace every video on my server with videos of me sleeping. Then I'll sell usernames/passwords for $10 to get the real videos. YEAH! Thats right! From now on, if the server asks for a username and password, just send $10 to... Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
