FTP Sites Wanted For Chemistry & Chemical Engineering E-book & Program Downloads

I would like to know if posters on these scientific newsgroups can share
any FTP site(s), or HTTP sites linking to FTP or other protected sites,
including log-in names and passwords, from which chemistry and chemical
engineering and related e-books, publications and programs (not
available to the general public from unprotected HTTP sites) can be
downloaded free. These can include, especially, university FTPs.

To start things off, I would like to share:

(a) one such site, which links to protected sites for such downloads:

http://www.todoquimica.net/modules.php
Another URL for downloads associated with it is:
http://ingquimica.com/modules.php

One has to register to become a subscriber to the site (believed located
in Chile), which has an on-line forum. The site itself and the forum
posts are mostly in Spanish, but almost all the publications that can be
downloaded through links provided by various subscribers on the site are
in English. I recently (earlier this month) downloaded, through a Yahoo
Briefcase link provided a subscriber to the site, a collection of 14
important classical chemical engineering textbooks, in English,
published between the late 1960s and early 2000s, which someone in
Spanish-speaking South America, probably Chile, had digitized and
converted to PDF format (as ZIP and RAR archives) with all
illustrations, using copies in a university chemical engineering
library. The links (to the parts of a RAR split archive called
"chelibri"

The FTP site: ftp://books:books@myebooks.dyndns.org seems pretty good. I had been looking for "Nitration and aromatic reactivity" and they have it. This site is the first positive thing I have found to do with my dialup connection with 5kbps/s download speed

. Wow a 680kb file is taking over 20min to download

, I wonder how long it will take to download "nitration and aromatic reactivity"

This will take a very long time but it will be worth it. Thanks JohnWW.

We have two unnoficial FTP's here. Aptly called FTP and FTP2

. You will have to inquire to Axehandle and Eliteforum via U2U to discuss whether or not you will be granted access.

Not very long if you dl it from axehandles forum ftp where it is to be found since the ftp opened business....

No need to run the polish dial-up down.

My wish would be that the stuff gets up on our ftp´s - the polish guy will be thankful I guess....
Maybee it is possible to offer him ftp-access here in return? axehandle? eliteforum? Thats up to you of course.

Concretely the site is located in Spain, but we have a lot of users (subscribers) of other countries, but generally the vast majority of information is in spanish.

I am one of the webmasters and I am pleased to invite all of you to visit this site.

Greetings,

Organikum: I was unable to find it in Axehandles FTP, could you point me in the direction of what folder it is in?

I found it here:

Re: FTP Sites etc.

It appears that the Yahoo Briefcase links I gave for the RAR archive of 14 chemical engineering ebooks are now dead, although the chap, called "Pipi", who gave the links said they would be available until the end of July.

I can only suggest that you get onto the chemistry forum site
(which mostly uses Spanish, of which I happen to have some knowledge)
http://www.todoquimica.net/modules.php
, which I now believe is based in Spain although most of its members are
in South America, register as a member, and (preferably in Spanish) ask
for "Pipi" to reinstate the "chelibri" links. For what it is worth, I received the
email containing the download links from the email address
warez@ureach.com , and it gave chelibri@todoquimica.net as a reply
address.

In the near future, when I have time, I will be uploading the 14 chemical engineering
books (in English), unpacked and repacked as PDFs in individual ZIP
files without any password, and a lot of other stuff, to the upload
folder of our forum's FTP site.
