I propose three things (esp. now that things get larger, so the mess can only get larger): - Move everything not clearly identified (belonging to a collection or whatever) to a "CLEAN UP" or (a folder name I use for such things) "Area 51" or whatever. People can then go there and help identify things, or let the mess in there just be (under the carpet). - In the root create a clear tree structure that you want people to follow. For example "TOSEC" folder and inside "Latest FULL TOSEC" and "TOSEC UPDATES" and "TOSEC SOONERS" etc. - Everybody with upload access should be instructed to only upload followed by a "read me" file (maybe give them an empty form to use), to explain what was uploaded, where it belongs etc. ...or face removal of the upload after a set period. Just my 0.5. |

That's the thing, people ask for it to be cleaned but nobody actually wants to assist due to lack of time...

Hmmm, just having a look at the various accounts on the FTP in order to do some maintenance...
These seem to be duplicates: Code:
deoaxe64 no such EAB member deoaxe64160 no such EAB member FanAmiga no such EAB member FanCamiga no such EAB member Ktulu no such EAB member Kutullu no such EAB member ...and this account "sandro1" is most probably related to the "Sandro" who was banned from EAB in October 2016; therefore the account has now been deleted. |

Quick update on the status of the new FTP server. The server is ready with all its new disks. Old server would only produce about 360MB/sec (Megabyte) from its Raid1 array (4TB) so we could not saturate the 10Tb NIC, even if we did get it working (which I did not in the old server).
New server produces about 1700MB/sec from its Raid10 array (8TB) so it should not be the bottleneck in our new 10Tb NIC. New disks payed in part from your generous donations =) Testing the network internally, it also holds up well. Code:
[SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 10.9 GBytes 9.39 Gbits/sec sender [SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 10.9 GBytes 9.39 Gbits/sec receiver I did contact bredbandskollen and complained about the "slow" 6.5Tb/sec speeds (hehe) and according to them, it should be able to handle it (did not expect that response...) so I don't know. I might be able to tweak that in the future, but I don't see the EAB FTP getting even close to 6500Mb/sec anytime soon anyway. Heck, it did barely any damage to the previous 1Tb link so I have no idea why I need 10Tb or have spent countless thousands on it... When people ask, I simply say "Would you like a Ferrari if you could get one?". I'm currently in the process of rsyncing everything over from the old to the new. After I'm done, it should just be a simple firewall change to point you to the new one. We'll see when that happens. |

I must admit that i'm already satisfied with the download speed of this file server
But, out of curiosity Turran, the "new" server should go more fast in download ? Sorry for the question, but i'm ignorant by a technical point of view |

Depends on your speed really. If you have 100Mbit, probably not. If you have 1Tbit, yes it will be!

Holy Guacamole that's insanely fast!
I only have 100Mbps down and 10Mbps up (grr!) at home and 200 up/down at work. I assume this is not running on an A4000 |

Less than 2 minutes for a file on 500MB, on downloading. Slow or fast?

Is it fast or slow? Depends what you pay for and where in the world you are etc. For ADSL, it sounds rather good. For fibre, its not. Correct my math if you want =) *bedtime* |

Did you allow more concurrent connections with the new pipe?

Well, not sure if it helps with anything.
Most modern ftp clients will attempt multiple download threads by default. Not that it gives any gain probably (if single connection speed limit is not set in your server). |

@Turran what do you think about eliminating or raising the download limits of people who have donated?

While on the subject, I still have not switched to the new server. Had some issues with the raid card so had to replace it for one I had in storage.. Its only SATA-II though, so we can "only" get ~350MByte/sec from it (Roughly 3.5Tbit/sec). Unsure if I should go with that and be happy or buy a better one with Sata6... Edit: Made up my mind. Ordered a new SAS 6G raid card =) Last edited by Turran; 19 April 2018 at 13:30. |
