HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Route HFS through VPN

« on: December 01, 2017, 12:32:52 AM »

Is there anyway to run a VPN service only for HFS?
I'm quite curious. On the client side I can't connect via a browser VPN, but on the server side I must route all traffic through the VPN.
Is there any way to configure it to run exclusively on HFS.
I have access to a few paid services: PIA, NordVPN, ExpressVPN and IPVanish.

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / MD5 files won't show on folders

« on: October 15, 2016, 01:35:10 PM »

Tried to find a thread that talks about files that are present on the server, but won't show on hfs.
I have a folder with a bunch of md5 files that won't show when they are accessed via hfs.
Folder is set as virtual, if I change the extension to txt it shows. Looks like there's some setting of filemask that won't allow me to access *.md5 files.

How can I change that?!

Thanks in advance.

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Server-sided password management

« on: February 18, 2016, 07:32:37 PM »

TBH, I couldn't find a better place to ask and a better title to the topic,
but I accessed one of the password protected folders of my server with incognito mode on a fixed IP connection.
Some days later I accessed the same folder again using the same incognito mode (after closing it) and the same IP.
And it didn't ask for login.
Are passwords handled by IP (since it didn't ask besides I didn't store cookies)
or by HFS session (because of previous login and I didn't close HFS)?

thanks in advance.

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Prevent direct IP access/Facebook crawling

« on: August 14, 2015, 02:06:17 AM »

I'm currently running HFS to host a static page (and some download folders).
Is there any setting in HFS to prevent direct IP accesses? Let me say, my IP is xx.xx.xx.xx,
I don't want it to open the index.html static page if I browse it using http://xx.xx.xx.xx
or, in other words, I want the server to be acessible only by using http://domain.com
Apache usually have that .htaccess that can rule over direct IP accesses preventing this to happen.

Second question.
I put the meta tags and opengraph tags in the html, just to be able to share some links on facebook with thumbnails and such things.
I'm running through CloudFare's DNS. Is that a problem? Because the crawler doesn't seem to get the html file.
It keeps giving timeout errors on https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/

EDIT: BTW, since this is my first post, thanks for HFS! It's the best tool for casual users!
