download from server after finish download by seedbox

[prima1]

i use IDM to download files from the server. Sometimes it brings me more than 20 bad files. sometime 3, 4 files only.i try many other Internet download program but got the same result. Dont' know the reason why.

I know but what protocol do you use, FTP or HTTP?
where are the files when you download them? in which directory?

Http. var/www/html/film . I create Film dir to put my download in.
Make torrent of the files i download but not as fast as download through http by IDM

I heard the var/www/html way is not good for downloading files, this is a webserver and not for download

I think the FTP is the best way

But the FTP is so slow. DO you know how to download with FTP max speed ?
with IDM i can get more than 200KB/s . Just download the DVDR and no bad files .i will check the second one

GINZY I was not talking about downloading with your FTP client using SFTP method

I was talking about setting up an FTP server like I explained here
https://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/p-dow...39/postcount15

And then you can go to ftp://vpsxxx.leeware.com/pub/ (replace xxx with your server number)
and you can download your files from there using your download manager at maximum speeds

I'm using FDM (Free Download Manager) and getting acceptable speeds 170+
i think the main thing to consider when choosing a client to download off the ftp is that it splits files into sections..

"FDM is an indispensable tool for download acceleration. It splits files into several sections and then downloads them simultaneously allowing you to increase your download speed up to 600%."

IDM also does this.

first of all, you can move files in putty using the command
mv filename /var/www/html/filename (or any other location you want)
you can rename files with the same command
mv oldfilname newfilename

for a list of handy commands go here
http://www.linuxhelp.net/newbies/#mv

secondly, downloading with this method you get a lot of broken files, so i do not recommend it

instead you can install an ftp server
this is what i did, although i think i installed the wrong version but its working fine

the server i installed is vsftpd

first download vsftpd
in putty type
wget ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/...0.5-8.i386.rpm

of course instead of typing all this just copy and right click anywhere in terminal it will be posted for you

then type in the following commands
mkdir -p /var/ftp/pub/9/updates/ (although i don't think this one is necessary but since i don't know what it does, let's leave it there)
now install it,this is supposing it is in the /tmp directory, but when you download something it is usually in /root directory, so either move it to tmp before running this command or change tmp with root
rpm -Uvh /tmp/vsftpd-2.0.5-8.i386.rpm

now edit your vsftpd.conf file
it can be found in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf

login to your server using your FTP client (sFTP method in Buggyme post) and edit the file like this
uncomment (remove the # from the beginning of)
anonymous_enable=YES
save the file

now type the following command in putty
setenforce 0 (this disables selinux temporarily to enable it again use setenforce 1)

and to run your ftp server type
service vsftpd restart

now move any files you wanna download to /var/ftp/pub
you can browse your site from this address
ftp://vpsxxx.leeware.com/
and download the files using your download manager

deep2k I hope this helps you

if anybody is reading this message and laughing at me. please shut up. because I've been asking for a few days now and no one helped.

in FTP case accessing the pub folder by unwanted users are easy if they some how mange to get the server address which is not hard if some1 searches for particular file on the pub, so i want to know how to password restrict that folder, its very hard on Linux servers specially when using webmin.
