I need HOSTING for my vids!!!

I know some places gives you unlimited band width but either does not allow lots of files or intolerant of amvs. I can try to split it up into tiny tiny crypted zips hidden with maybe even fake html headers but thats sorta sneaky and a problem to d/l 3 different zips from different links... should I?!?!

I dont have broadband, but I have of courses some pass word to public compters such as dorm router, library dns server and etc, but they are f1re@lled (EEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) so is there a way to get around that? I could use unblocked ports and then force one outwards, such as using POP3 ports and fake packet or email bot and have it open up port outward. Any ideas? Should I DO?!?!

NO I AM NT GOING TO F***ING PAY FOR MY HOSTING!!!
Do you thinks im a riches or somehting?
i absolutely cant

WHEN THE HECK IS THIS COPPER DONUT COMING OUT IS IT?!?!

sorry for the misspells and 123 thing im sleepy Right now. have a nice day.

Is this question even in the FAQ? Because it should be. Anyway, get an FTP server is my recomendation. Use GuildFTP, search for it on Download.com

One: POP3 is not at all suited for the purpose that you're planning to put it to. It cannot act as a file server. It's a mail-handling protocol; hence, Post Office Protocol. It's used for RETRIEVAL, not SENDING. So using a POP3 daemon to send won't work.

Now, even if you were to place your FTP server on port 110 and stick it in passive mode, I'm sure you'd run into conflicts with the firewall configuration somewhere down the line.

Two: That "router" you speak of hardly has enough capacity to store one video. Even though I'm willing to bet it's something like a Linksys, even CISCO routers don't have enough memory. Not to mention that a router, in its usual role, is totally incapable of acting as a file server. (Oh sure, it can ROUTE packets to the correct destination, but the only way to get stuff off/onto it is usually TFTP, which just doesn't work for long-distance transmission.)

The library DNS server probably doesn't have any FTP daemons installed (unless your sysadmins are real idiots). To install one, you'd have to either

(1) have root access to install and use it on a port < 1024
(2) do some substantial configuration changes to get it installed and working as non-root, and, to be frank, it doesn't sound like you're up for that.

Anyway...

---

Regarding firewalling: What ports are blocked? My intuition says anything < 1024, but that might be incorrect. If you were to set up an FTP server as The Wired Knight suggested, you would have to know this information (assuming you're doing this in the same geographical area as the firewalled systems.)

You can set up an FTP server by placing it on an unfiltered port (say 2021) and requiring connecting clients to use passive mode, but that's an uncertain solution until the firewall setup is known.

hypotheticaly yes,
hypotheticaly I can also wedge a bowling pin up my ass sideways,
doesn't mean I'm going to do it.

(actually no. I can't pay for the hosting, and double no for the bowling pin thing)
