stable ? It's easy to crash it though when browsing folders quickly. It may not be its purpose, but it would be nice if it could be more robust. I tried it with a friend and it crashed quickly, making ton of dialog box with "Access Violation ..."  :(

Else it looks very nice, I was looking for something like that since a while now. Feel free to ask if you need info about this crash.

i see
it was "stable" because people didn't submit bugs

to fix a bug i need a way to reproduce it myself. please describe how to crash in details so that i can reproduce it.

The simple way to reproduce it would be just hitting F5 (refresh) several time. But it's a little violent, I wouldn't say anything if it was only that. I mounted a folder with some subfolders and  it crashed when i've just browsed  them quickly (when i say quickly, you don't wait for the page to be loaded completely). Tested with a friend : he can crash my hsf server and I can crash his server too doing that. We're both running on wxp sp1.

I guess it happen because the browser make too many connection in a short amount of time. Using a limit for the number of connection didn't help though :-\

I tried that on Win 98SE, IE6 SP1 - and it was OK ! (used - c:\program files ...)
What browser are you using ?

BTW -
is there a restriction on adding a complete disk to the file system? seems to me that it does NOT generate a directory tree for a complete disk ...

IE6 sp1 too, but I found it do it only when you set a speed limit (speed limit was 5Kb/s).

Yep, got it to crash too... Just had to press a few times F5 ...
I think the speed limit - "helped" ...

fixed

well, i'm not sure it is definitely fixed, it could be not for MANY connections.

i actually don't know WHY it was crashing, but i saw that all broken connections (when you don't wait for it to be served) were pending in the queue. They were not removed from the queue on client disconnection. And i saw the queue was long.
The queue is used only when the server has no speed limit (and it is not paused).
Now the queue is shorter than before, because it is purged on client disconnection. I fear the problem is still there but it is sleeping, because the queue is short.

But it could be ok if it can hold 5-10 users browsing.
would you test it?

You guessed it right, but it's far more robust now. Good work. It gave me a hard time to crash it. It happened eventually, but i used ten windows at the same time to do it, and it crashed only one time.  
For me, it's good : when connecting from internet it's not easy to make so much connection (except if it's a DoS attack), I don't think I'll get problem with a "normal" usage.

well, i would like to improve stability further

i already noticed that "drives" support is not good

Can you check, please,  if the option to have the "Get Right" browser is ON is the  default for a new installation ?

yes it is
you can reset HFS configuration by pressing SHIFT while it is starting, so you can check it by yourself

yes, i will document it ;)))

I think I found  a bug with the VFS, when you mount a folder without autoupdate. Sometimes the directory tree is incomplete, I think there is a loop somewhere because in the status bar, the number of added item is increasing but never stop. And if I try to remove the folder to stop it, it crash. It don't depend of the number of files in the folder, I'm not sure why it does it. I'll see if I can find the trigger.

Well, I found it why. It's because hfs follow shorcuts and there was a cycle with them .... Something that should be prevented.

Ok, the most stupid exemple is to put in a folder a shorcut to this folder:

Someone can test bans ? it's not working at all for me. Banned people can still connect. And when it ask if I want to kill the current connections of someone i'm banning, it don't even really do it (it disappears from the list but the transfert continue).

Hi,
Not sure if this is the same thing, but I remember coming across something like this in MSIE 5.0 - 5.5-SP2 (can't remember) where the large images displayed as a small red "X" even though the address was correct.

I just now tried with HFS 1.5-RC6 + Opera 7, Firebird 0.6 and Internet Exploder 6-SP1 with a 1.3MB JPG and they seem to display properly, however I don't have 5.5 anymore so I cannot try it there to confirm.  What browser and version is this appearing in?
