I would like to see etiher one of two things...
Allow users to browse the server, but limit the number of total downloads..
so example: max downloads 1... and people could still look around
also it would be nice if you could show the users how much of that download is complete and maybe estimated time left.

I would also like to see a periodic password changer... to create unique passwords every specified amount of time, then save it to a text file, so I could incorporate an mIRC script to allow downloaders to access the hfs one at a time. Also it would be nice if you could put the number of downloads and ip information in that folder, so I could set up an mIRC queue system.

If not any of those, can you reccomend a Dev environment so I can personally modify you code to do so?
Thanks alot.

i won't work on these features in the very near future, but i will take note your requests

i suggest you to use Delphi 6 Personal Edition.
it is the one i'm using and it is free of charge.
i downloaded it from www.borland.com 1-2 years ago

Awesome... I think the biggest issue id like to see changed is to have an option to limit downloading and limit browsing so people could still poke around while max downloaders breached. Also kicking idle connections from hogging browsing of the files... I have noticed that some people remain in idle for up to 30 minutes untill I kick the connection.
A logfile would also be a very nice touch for the weary file admin. Log IP and what file they downloaded (average speed/time etc)

I think there is a save-as logflie feature. Just right click on the log pane and see...
Sure a real log file with an On-Off switch is probably better, and if added - it will be nice!

OH... I figured out a great thing that would be easy to do most likely.
Have an option to allow access to specified IP addresses only.
Keep the IPs in a text file, so other applications could modify access on the fly (like mIRC) to set up a file serving system... or just to prevent other people from detecting that you are running a HTTP server.

I would like to see a downloading queue system... that would be the most beautifullesssstt thing ever. If this came around, I would say forget the periodic password changer... no need...

set max queues, set max downloads... Maybe use a self refreshing window to notify the user when download was ready.

It appears that the delphi 7 architect version cant compile hfs  :cry: ...
SO, I what would be cool is to have an option to store/read the file's passwords from a .txt file. My main goal is to create an mIRC plugin that runs in conjunction with hfs to control downloads from users in an mIRC channel.

All I need to do this properly is have a actively update log file (which is already being done)... and a way to let other applications change the access password.
Unfortunately mIRC cannot modify registry entries, or interface with hfs actively, so the only way I can see other than programming hfs is to have mIRC modify these values in a file that hfs uses to store in a file.

By the way.. the compiler error I get is:
[Fatal Error] main.pas(40): File not found: 'wsocket.dcu'

which points to this line...
  wsocket, {$IFDEF USEGIF} JvGIF, {$ENDIF}
in the library declaration section

as I said... I have the delphi 7 architect trial version
if you can help me out with this, thatd be great.
