FTP (FILE TRANSFER PROTOCOL) IS A FUNCTIONALITY THAT ALLOWS YOU TO REMOTELY ACCESS MY COLLECTION AND EXTRACT SHOWS FROM MY SERVER DIRECTLY ONTO YOUR COMPUTER VIA YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION. THE FASTER THE CONNECTION, THE FASTER THE DOWNLOAD.

FTP Downloading is now available. You can update series you have already purchased, add to what you have or replace your collection show by show. The server is hooked to a T3 FIOS line. It has been tested to 183-200 kbs. Your actually transfer rate may vary

 

Uploading is a great way to contribute shows to the collection I don't have and it doesn't cost you anything. I offer 2 for 1 credit on anything I don't have. Send me an email and request a upload account with the title you want to send.  It must be a series I don't have, from the pre 70's era.  Must be 32kbs or higher and in MP3 format.

Donations offset the costs associated with maintaining the equipment, fixing Reel to Reel Decks and paying for the connections.  Any overages are put back into the collection.

INSTRUCTIONS
 

Those who wish to become members may test their connection at this time by running their FTP client and entering the following info:
Hostname:  Dadsotr.serveftp.com
Port:              29
Username: test
password:  test

Successful login will show a file "test successful"  Browsing the collection through FTP is reserved for members only.  You do NOT have to pay anything to sign up.

Please be aware that multiple unsuccessful attempts will lock you out. Please email me if you cannot login or you cannot see the success file.

Directories are being added 1 at a time and backed up. The Directories are now in Alphabetical order. You will find more content on the FTP server than the website.


Filezilla has been successfully tested.  I don't have every FTP program out there to help you but if you have success on a another FTP tell me and I will post it here.  If you need Filezilla, please let me know.  It's a free program and very easy to use.

I intend to make a directory of reel to reel and other low generation transfers available. Please bear this in mind when you browse and decide to download.  These are typically better quality but cost more of your credits.
