[b]Hi RedBully, check out the Thread "Crowdirt's Server" on how to control IP#'s that access a FTP Server. My server does not allow unknown users to get connected....ever.

hmm you might try that... but there is a problem when ppl are on DSL or even have cable with dynamic IP's. I can block out all ip #'s, and allow entire ranges on my ftp, but what do you do if they give out the info to someone that is on the same range. Anyway, I've seen it happen, and I don't wanna go through all this trouble again.
Anyway, I still like the idea, and I fully support it, but I can't see why you would d/l from someone at 30 K if you can get it from another server at 300 K
The best solution (imo) is running a direct connect hub somewhere, and give everyone a login/pass for the hub. I've seen that happen on several other boards, and it seems to work out for them. Plus it's a nice replacement for an FTP server...
Anyway, I hope it'll all work out for you, and I'll keep watching this thread...
Peace,
RedBully
