I want a seed box for a specific purpose

[abosamer]

I'm seeking for a seedbox for a while and didn't find a good one to serve my needs.

the main purpose to buy a seedbox is to upload files on rapidshare . And these files are from torrent sites which I have to keep good ratio on it but mainly I need the seedbox for uploading not buffering .

And the biggest problem is that not only me that will work on uploading , but like 8 people who will do the same work .

So , I'm searching for a way to give my friends access to the seed box and let them download and upload on rs ( using rs uploader or manager program ) all on the same box .


I don't like remote uplaoding that rs provide , so I think the best way is by remote desktop connection ( or windows 2003 web edition as some one suggest b4 ), or something similar .

So can anyone suggest a good seed box let me do what I want ?

I can pay like 80 Euro per month ( I can handle setup fees )

answered to some pms

But can some one write here what is the best thing that I should get ?

Maybe a server with powerful hardware and Ubuntu/Debian with Gnome would suit you well.
Easy to create multiple user accounts, easy to use and learn the invironment.

You need powerful hardware

Either hosting-ie / server.lu . OVH can cap you for excessive usage

Can I make many ubuntu/Debian accounts on the same dedicated server , so my friends can uses them ?


And can I install rs uploader program on each ?

Ok thanks for the info on OVH

but I think Hosting-IE is not in my mind now after some bad experiance that I heard about them .

[manu1991]

then server.lu is good

for 69E , you can get the DS4000 with Athlon X2 4800+ , 4 GB RAM and 640GB HDD

Sure, you can make unlimited accounts on dedicated linux box.
Use google and search linux rapidshare upload script, like:

or

Only if you max out your connection constantly. I think that with 8 people doing things at the same time, will quickly send your server to a "abuser-LAN" and give you a much lower speed indeed.

I might be a better idea to find even better suppliers like LeaseWeb. You will pay (a bit) more but you will always have 100Mbit or whatever you pay for.

I have also recommended to him Leaseweb, but he only wants to expend around 80€
