Arian Posted June 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 Somebody tried to hack my server and now it's unresponsive because the company locked it down for safety purposes. But even after I refreshed everything, I still can't connect to it. If anybody has any suggestions about where to go from here, I'm all ears. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's their server and they locked it down, so I don't see why they wouldn't help out if you put a ticket in for the issue. @Arian Since you said you "refreshed it" I'm assuming you are able to connect to manage the server, but that previously made download links are dead. I tried one of the Goof Troop links a few minutes ago and it's defenitley not working. It's possible the server provider might have killed all your download links. If there isn't a way to revive them, then maybe try creating new download links and see if that works. Probably be a pain in the ass to create new links for everything, but it's worth a shot if you can't fix the original ones.

Arian Posted June 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 Now we learn that it wasn't a hack after all. No, it seems as though Toei Animation has squealed on me on copyright infringement grounds already. What I don't get is why did they report the Canadian shows I had on my server? They have nothing to do with that. Well, it's back to MEGA.nz for me. The rest of you, you know who you are, you're on your own. So much for 5 years without a single copyright notice, eh, @Koby? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might get the server back up and the links live again for the rest of the content that's still on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 It's why I suggested XDCC over direct links. It's a lot more exclusive, and less likely to be targeted because it requires them actually joining irc channels and trying to figure out where bots are located (which they aren't privy to domain names or server IPs). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll keep this in mind, and I might even set it up for backup purposes, but I do want everyone to have access. If @Raven can host the mainstream content he's hosting on MEGA, then why can't I? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldn't everyone have access to XDCC? After taking 5-10 minutes to set it up it's just as easy to download from as any DDL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you saw on @Koby's poll, XDCC got the least amount of votes for preferred method of downloading. Nevertheless, only time will tell which direction I go in from here. Perhaps I'll cater to both.

Fair enough. It really is pretty simple to get set up following the guide here on Kametsu for Hexchat. It's a bit outdated though and Hexchat has changed slightly in regards to it's GUI layout. Once it's set up, if you can copy/paste, you can download. I've been thinking about creating an updated version to that guide that will pretty much hold everyone's hand from begining to end. I have to make guides all the time at work as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great, so the ISOs I uploaded are down. I guess I might have to consider getting a XDCC account set up then. Back to Openload for the meantime.

Also, knowing the shows that were targeted weren't produced by Toei anyways, it might just be a false DMCA by some twit. I know this because usually when a Social Justice advocate can't get their way through their conventional means, the last resort (prior to violence, so you might call that semi-final) is usually using copyright (DMCA, which under American law is legally perjury) to get something taken down.

You should be able to recheck/verify the previously received chunks and then just pick up where you left off at. You shouldn't have to start all over.
