PPCGeeks FTP Site released.
 

The ftp site is ready for all users to use. So guidelines tho.

1. There will be NO warez, keygens and/or full programs stored on the ftp.
2. Do NOT upload "Crossbow"!
3. Treat it as your own. And do NOT trash it.
4. Do not use spaces instead use _ in names. Or you will have issues trying to link to it.
5. Enjoy the NO wait downloads!
6. PPCGeeks (me or ISP) will not be held responsible for an file that may harm your system that is downloaded. I recommend you scan everything first just in case. ;)

Now to the info. You can view and download by pointing your browser to ftp://ppcgeeks:ezupload@up.ppcgeeks.com

Or use a FTP program such as CoreFTP.
Host - up.ppcgeeks.com
Username - PPCGeeks
Password - EZUpload

And if anyone wants to do ahead and upload the ROMs posted here from rapidshare. Feel free to do so. Just make sure you name them correctly with user and aku info.
Enjoy,
Mike

Good news!

Take a look in the Apache section :wink: Very nice to have the FTP!

ImcokeMaN:

Your url that you posted the 3.5 to, well it needs the passwords adjusted. I sugguest you edit it before ya get a room full of whining about it not working.

I'm downloading the 3.5 image now, and will give you some feed back.

Thanks for the FTP site. I actually broke down and bought a month of RapidShare to keep up, now thats money wasted.........

hooray. It's ProFTPd, so i know it's a goodie.. I take it that space limitations are not of a concern? Or will that perhaps be an issue later? I suspect once more people start cooking their own custom roms, we will see many branches of each rom threading out to multiple areas via FTP.

Since i foolishly left my phone at home this morning, i'll start grabbing as many files from rapidshare and uploading them to the ftp site amidst my calls with techs in the field.

For the Kitchen, we should only need to upload DELTAs off the main kitchen (ie, for 3.5, just OS and LOC) and of course just a bunch of OEMs for everything else.

very nice. hey mike when u get time can u pm all the info on this. like where u can purchase and how much it cost a mouth and all that good stuff. thanks man

Hey wide, I just tried using coreFTP and with the current host name you have i kept getting incorrect login. I tried the ftp address and that worked. Just wanted to mention that for other people that might try it.

Username - PPCGeeks but don't use capitol letters

no capital letters with the password either or just the user name? just asking b4 i try again. the way he wrote it in the first post works with the ftp url.

OOps yup no caps at all on anything

It worked for me with SmartFTP

Its currently set to 80GB of storage and the bw has not been throttled down. And if more space I needed I will add it. But if I find abuse have have to put a bw limit on it I will.
~Mike

updated to add the no spaces.....it causes linking issues.
thanks,
mike

Can i put ring tones here?

I don't know why not, as long as it's not copyrighted (aka ripped music) works

Well it's up to Mike, but I think it's better to use the attachment method for ringtones since those are, usually, smaller files.

yeap what pibe said ;) no sense in putting them on the ftp when u can attach them.

Is there a way to restrict privaledges for users of the ftp? Basically, somone just accidentally deleted all the files in my section. Perhaps putting certain passwords on certain sections.

I will have to look into it. I can't believe its already being messed with. :evil:

It was accidental, but still reveals a potential problem

YEah you can;t hit the files without logging in with the upload creds. Would think a read only account or even let annonymous apply ot read only..

as I can see it the only way to post a link is the full path with user info:
ftp://ppcgeeks:ezupload@up.ppcgeeks....r_AKU_3.3x.zip

if annonymous it should read:
ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Apache/saridnour/sar_AKU_3.3x.zip

an they would not have r/r/d access unless they dug around. just my 2 cents :)

I just deleted this file from the FTP site, please, do not upload it again.

Also, keep an eye on other directories so that we don't have some apps twice. Apps that work on more than 1 device, like GoogleMaps, should go on the Applications folder, not the 700w/wx folder.

I see what you mean, but it would make it a lot easier to download a large collection of ringtones if they're all in a folder, instead of having to click and download each individual ringtone from attachments. Just a thought :)

Well I don't know that every users is going to download all the ringtones... I don't know.

Hate to be the first to report this (from ChronoT52 on pdaphonehome), but in the Apache section, there is a .rar file called WM6 how to or something like that. It isn't a how to at all, but rather a video of 2 ladies, and it definitely does not have anything to do with a ppc. Mike...you might want to remove it.

mf first whatsa file called wm6 on the ftp for little less the p00n issue. and is there a link to my ftp @ pdaphonehome in a thread? let me know.
thanks,
mike

There is a link in my signature there.

yea with password removed? that's cool....

ok i must be completely retarded because I can't access the ftp. i've clicking on the links using firefox, i've used IE7 with no luck and I've tried FlashFXP and can't do it either. With every other ftp I had to enter a Port number in FlashFXP, but you dont need one here? How are all you accessing it?

All working fine for me. In firefox and pie. Dunno what's happening ur way and oh if ur clicking the text in posts that say ftp that's not gonna work click this one ;) ftp://ppcgeeks:ezupload@up.ppcgeeks.com
~Mike

I just use IE7, Windows Explorer and SmartFTP.

ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/

User: ppcgeeks
Password: ezupload

Alright, I'm this close to giving up. I've tried CoreFTP and SmartFTP in addition to the other stuff I mentioned above and I still can't connect. In Firefox when I click on a link to the ftp site it acts like its loading but nothing happens. In IE7 it says the page cant be displayed. Are you changing the port number to anything inparticular? The default in all the ftp programs are 21. Could someone walk me through in detail how to connect using FlashFXP, CoreFTP, or SmartFTP? I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

There was nothing special to it with SmartFTP, I just put the address, user name, and password and I was in.

I think you may have a firewall blocking your ports maybe???

I don't think the firewall is the issue because I'm able to access other ftp sites as well. Can someone tell me what port number you are using in the ftp software?

My SmartFTP is using 21, I just noticed when I logged in.

Thanks for letting me know. I guess I'll just keep trying and searching on the web for stuff. Thanks for all the help guys.

I can confirm having a problem getting into the ftp site from my winXP pc using IE7.

But it does work from my xv6700 in pIE through my WiFi?!?

Will pull out a desktop ftp prog later...
