HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: For testing purpose (HFS beta including SSl tools)

« on: September 17, 2012, 04:35:41 AM »

This works on WHS 2011.  However, I've been looking for a solution to remote downloads of large files from the server that can be resumed (if connection broken) with a download manager like GetRight.  I tried the HFS 2.2 "speed" version (from another sub-forum), and that allows maximum ISP upload speed saturation with multiple GetRight connections. But your version doesn't allow GetRight to connect at all, even when the "Prevent leeching" option is unchecked.  (Perhaps it's the Stunnel part?)

Of course, I want security, so the open HFS isn't going to work for me.  I was just testing the speed version to see if I was barking up the wrong tree.  But I was happy with what it could do except for security.  Your's would be the ideal solution if the download speed was faster (it's only about 1/4 of my ISP upload bandwidth), and maybe that would be the case if GetRight could establish multiple connections.  Any ideas why a download manager won't connect?

Thanks!

FHFS / Re: Version 2.0 Beta Discussion

« on: September 15, 2012, 09:26:37 PM »

Your FHFS program seems like it can be very useful, but I'm having a problem getting to square one. After putting the FHFS folder under c:\program files as instructed, when I first run FHFS_Launcher, I get the error that the port is blocked -- check firewall.  That's to be expected.  When I then restore FHFS from the tray icon, I can change the port to a desired port (I easily found that parameter in the hfs.ini file).  However, with a better port specified, I get the cmd line window telling me that :
"The service name is invalid. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2185. The service name is invalid. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2185. FHFS has been shut down successfully! Press any key to continue . . ."

Unfortunately, what service is involved or where to go from here. I know you're putting off docs until you've got a fully functional product, but a little better starter info would be appreciated.  I should note that I'm trying to install on WHS 2011.  I haven't had any problems on that OS with either the HFS 2.2f or the hfs.282a_SSL_FR.

Thanks!
