HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: hfs with web trusted ssl certificate using stunnel

« on: March 02, 2023, 06:54:59 PM »

surely you need to get a better certificate first.
decide to buy, or try https://letsencrypt.org/

consider HFS 3, as it has https and you don't need stunnel. Also, it's a much better software IMO.

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: How can I increase download speed?

« on: February 27, 2023, 10:54:25 PM »

you can't do that on the admin-panel, yes, but you can share the destination folder and give (to you) upload permission.
Folders upload is supported this way

HFS is not a focused on performance, but on easy of use.
My advice is to try HFS 3 and see if it's any better, as it is a totally different technology https://github.com/rejetto/hfs
I'm no expert, but I suspect you don't reach the full bandwidth you have with a single connection. Maybe speed-tests use multiple connections.
What i'm saying is that possibly multiple downloads from your server will make a higher total.

and for those who need it: never confuse Mbps, that is megabits, with megabytes

i know a nasty inflation can be a huge problem.
i really hope the best for you!

about the forum, i like posting on github because i can easily paste parts of screenshots immediately. It's so convenient when you explain something.

i'm just commenting to let you know what I think, i'm not angry or sad

there's no need to be "intentional".
Doing this stuff is very consuming, sometimes painful. So, you don't do it if you don't like it, and I don't like working on version 2.
This already explains it.
Of course you are free to think there are more reasons to this, against the good old principle:

Bug reports / Re: Hfs.exe - Maulware via PUP

« on: February 09, 2023, 10:33:04 AM »

adware: there's no ad in HFS
PUP: "potentially undesired program", if you are willing to use it it's not undesired, am i right? 🙃

Bug reports / Re: False errors on upload

« on: February 09, 2023, 10:30:28 AM »

don't you have any idea of what is the difference between failed attempt and successful attempt?
consider we are not looking at you when you are doing it, so it's not easy to guess.

anyway, if I were you I'd be using HFS 3, that now supports uploads. I'm not working on version 2 anymore.

you have my email address, next time send me the link to your post if you want to catch my attention.

I had to remove from the source the part related to antiflood because it is bound to my database

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: problem with get ip address of external user in my log

« on: August 12, 2022, 02:46:28 PM »

1. it's described in the link i posted
2. i suppose this to not affect the mechanism, as it address is carried inside the http request

stunnel is not an http proxy, as apache can be, and so you have no way to get the real ip.

with nginx (i'm not using apache) you only need a line like this:
         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For   $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

as an alternative, HFS 3 is already supporting https natively, one may not need a proxy.

if apache/nginx works as reverse-proxy, it forwards the client's ip to HFS

so, you are using apache as reverse proxy in front of hfs ?
if yes, you are on case #3 of my list

hi Leo, thanks for warning me, I didn't see that.
I'll see what I can do.
