Web Hosts needed for ZC!

30 replies · 10,723 views · Started 17 August 2005

Ok everyone listen up.

I've decided to shut down two of my sites, www.afterblur.com, and www.webbeddesigns.com, the most used download sites for Zelda Classic program downloads from zc.com. Some of you have noticed that they've not been working as they should have recently. I've cancelled the hosting contracts. So as of now, they're done.

www.theapparition.net is still working as a download mirror, but more sites are needed to keep the ZC files easily available, and so as not to destroy any one user's bandwidth.

Ganonator has volunteered the use of thedpshack, and that's a good start, but we need a few more servers to host the files.

If you have a website with plenty of bandwidth, and you'd like to host the program files, please PM me with FTP login information, as well as the website address.

I will handle the upload of the files, as well as updating them as needs be. The space will only be used to host ZC program files - quests are stored on AGN's server.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

I've pm'ed you with my info Eckels, I have 1000MB of transfer bandwith per month. I pretty sure that'll be enough for something like ZC.

well, if you want an additional host, i'm sure GNET would be willing to help out, Ecks... i'll pm you with the appropriate information soon. 😊

Don't listen to ganonator, he's being a fool.

We can use all the help we can get.

How much space on a server do you need? How much bandwith?

I think my server has stupid amounts of bandwith...I'll check it out

I could really use some help from someone, I am experiencing excess load here... The past couple of months have been hard on me.

Bandwidth usage for zc.theapparition.net
Jan 2005 2.06 GB
Feb 2005 1.60 GB
Mar 2005 3.44 GB
Apr 2005 3.86 GB
May 2005 7.48 GB
Jun 2005 4.87 GB
Jul 2005 24.51 GB
Aug 2005 39.05 GB

I am having to pay overages, and I'll shut it down if this continues, so support ZC like I do, and host the files (or donate money to me)!

snort, if you want to donate space, just pm eckels with the info. dont bargain with him.

and besides, i have the same exact transfer and space as you, and i already set everything up.

You are quite possibly the stupidest member on AGN.

Oh and by the fucking way, I spent the other day deleting most of your comments from the QDB because of inappropriate language, or because they were simply spam. You are now banned from using the QDB comment system.

There's also a complaint thread about many of your recent posts in Forum Staff.

So fuck it. You're banned from AGN too. Take a week off. Please take your time coming back.

if you need a place to put files my site always welome files from agn

I basically have an extra 25 GB of bandwidth. Could we set me up near the end of the month (about 1 week left, perhaps) to see what kind of traffic hits me in that time, to determine if I can host it without PureZC getting taken out at the same time?

Anyone thought about setting up a Bittorrent tracker, I'd be happy to help seed v2.10 and which ever 1.9* version is used most.

I just set up a tracker, if anyone wants to help seed. I've only got 40k/s
Torrent: http://68.10.25.115:6969/torrent.html?info_hash=40f27fabb9f454fe931feff211b6d1e28cac0be1

These are the 3 files included in the torrent
zc210w.zip
zc210ws.zip
zc210s.zip

Anyway this was just a test to see if I got the tracker set up right. It's working. I'll play more with it Sunday if anyone is interested in keeping it going. [font=Microsoft Sans Serif](ie helping seed to keep everyones bandwidth costs down)[/font]

Sorry for the late response, just got back from a friends birthday party.

Good to know the tracker is working(Thanks ZeldaLord). I had a friend on irc test it so I knew that.

I can host 2 files at 20kb/s (each) or just 2.10 at 40kb/s.

If someone wants to let me know which 1.9* is the most popular and link the files I can make a new torrent for that. (Eckels I'm looking to you for this one) PM or reply, whatever works.

Seeds will be needed, I try to keep my computer up 24/7, but I only have the 40kb/s to spare as my modem is shared over the network.

If the tracker winds of being down, its cause cox is down or the power here is out.

Once I know whats up, I'll prolly change the torrent to the 2.10 for dummies that's in the ZC forum, along with whatever 1.9* files I need.

I know I don't post here much, but I like to help when I can. Especially since Z1 is my fav game of all time.
