New FTP server in testing mode


The FTP is online and once again I'm
starting from scratch. This is the
testing phase for download/upload.

This FTP is run using FileZilla Server(v0.9.60.2).
I strongly recommend the use of FileZilla Client
(v3.46.3).

Instructions for the client here: Attachment: FZCv3.46.3.txt (2kB)
This file has been downloaded 552 times


There is some information in some LIBRARY
folders namely:

CHEMISTRY_TECHNO
EXPLOSIVES
LAWS
REFERENCE

Folders LIBRARY and NOTICES are
READ ONLY.

Folders FOR_SALE, MATERIALS_DONATION,
SUGGESTION_BOX and WANT_TO_BUY are
self-explanatory and can be read or
written at will.

ALL users are logged into the PUBLIC
area. Users are encouraged to download
and upload. User folders can be created
in the PUBLIC area. Caveat emptor -
anything in the PUBLIC area can be
deleted or overwritten by ANY user.
Please be respectful of your fellow
madscientists !

Policies:

1) Server will be backed up everyday
2) PORN not allowed. There's plenty
of that on the internet.
3) MUSIC and MOVIES not allowed. I
don't want to receive a DMCA notice.
Exception: Instructional videos

Violations of policies 2 and 3 will
result in removal of such material
WITHOUT notice. Users who are
administrators or moderators may remove
offending material at their discretion.

After the testing phase, which will last until
all bugs are resolved, I will setup accounts.
Please U2U me with a request for an account
and supply the desired username/password. I'll
let you know when testing is complete and the
access information will be removed. Any material
uploaded to that point will be retained.

Report any bugs to this thread or a U2U to me.

Enjoy !

Testing access information:

Host: mhfs.hopto.org
Username: user
Password: userpw(will show as 6 dots during entry)
Port: 5000(my ISP blocks standard FTP port 21)

Polverone, please check your U2U.

Roguesci archive


In case anyone is interested, there is subcategory on
the FTP for roguesci. It's in an uncompressed file format
and listed under the LIBRARY section. It contains 9666
.html files and roughly 107MB. Easy enough to download.

Glad to hear this! I have searched the forum for some books, and thought I missed out. Why start from scratch?

Starting from scratch


This is the 3rd incarnation of the FTP.
Issues in the past have included loss of
internet service and 1 time, self-destruction
of the external drive(MAXTOR in this case)
and theft of an external drive.

I back it up every day onto a 1 TB Western
Digital drive. I'll never go back to MAXTOR.

There seems to be little interest so it will
remain wide open in case anybody wants
to look at it. My deepest apologies for the
problems of the past. My situation is
extremely stable now being retired and not
having to worry about theft or finances.

After the state of Maryland starts sending my
pension(already on Social Security) I would
like to start donating items from eBay. More
senior members will remember me doing this
with some items in the past. For example:
medical centrifuge, a bizarre looking flask,
battery charger, etc.

I'll let members know when this happens as
my laboratory needs are quite simple and it
would be ashame to let good eBay deals get
passed up. As for shipping I'll ship anywhere.
Already shipped to U.S., Canada, U.K. and Sweden.
So there it is. Knowledge should always be
free and I'm happy to help with some more
lab gear to that end. NEVER GIVE UP FOLKS !

I'm open to suggestions for lab gear. COVID-19
is helping to delay my pension. Put ideas in this
thread or a U2U. Anything within reason.

FTP Login


Yes. And I still recommend the FileZilla FTP
client for connecting as it's the most
compatible with the server.

OK, name resolution is ok, server accepts uname/password, but gives error 550, home directory doesn't exist and quits.

Edit: Btw. filezilla's own test server seems to be working.

Bug


There seems to be a problem in that
the server is behind a NAT router. I've
been exploring options to get around
this. All the permissions are set for
the PUBLIC directory so it has to be
something else. I'll post back when I
find a solution.

I saw a login prompt today for the first time in several months, but I get the same error as others.

A google suggests this may be fixed by going to EDIT - USERS - SHARED FOLDERS

And I assume also making sure the program has permissions on the folder.

FTP problems


I'm still trying to debug this damn thing.
This is the 1st time behind a router.
BTW, the password for the account "user"
has been turned off(not required). Please
report back any other problems including
the error #. Any suggestions from anyone
experienced with FileZilla Server would be
greatly appreciated.

You certainly live up to your name MadHatter, how long have you been making incarnations of an FTP? Seems like more than a decade. I still have my old login information in a notebook around here for the first incarnation (just ran across it the other day). Thanks for keeping the torch burning.

Information


Right now most information on the FTP
will be under LIBRARY/REFERENCE.
Apparently some people have been able
to login. Remember the most compatible
client is FileZilla.

FTP Problems


Continuing debugging FileZilla Server.
Opening up as much as possible on
router. Remember:

USERID: user
PASSWORD:
PORT: 5000

Do not enter a password.

Keep sending error reports when
you run into them.

Still recommend FileZilla client: https://filezilla-project.org/download.php?show_all=1

MadHatter,

The link I posted a few weeks ago suggests that there are intricate permission rules at different points in the server's setup what you must set right in order to get it working... Unfortunately the process is not straightforward "click and forget".
Opening up as much as on the router won't help because it is not a problem on the router. We can actually reach your server from the other side of the globe, we can get through your router but those server misconfigurations prevent us from getting to the content.

Port change


Change the port to 21. For some reason
FileZilla attempts to use my LAN address
with 5000. Please report any errors here.
Note: On AUGUST 27, 2020 someone did
successfully download according to the
log.
