| 66189 | 2002-07-28 08:27:00 | O yeah..with cable you get fixed IP, which makes running a webserver real easy i know a man on jetscream who is doing the same as me, and found a service that somehow deals with the everchanging IP, DNS, and domain name issues.. I have no idea how this works, but could find out for you if jetscrem hosting is an option.. BTW, i wont tell telescum if you dont, apparantly running a server is against the rules.. Telstra is fine with servers if a cable is an option, infact they encourage it! |

| 66190 | 2002-07-28 08:33:00 | after i place the files on a new partition how do i link it to the site, and won't i have to be on the net for the reciever to download the file? i only have a 56k connection, do i need jetstream to get optimal performance? cheers, v.K------------- :D |

| 66192 | 2002-07-28 08:41:00 | I *think* its OK to run a server on full jetstream? I thought the IP only changes on Jetstream Starter/5000? I know I am not allowed to run one, and dont intend to.. I am sure someone will advise on this....Chris has already confirmed the cable, which is probably cheaper VK if its available. Xtra quote the cost for a permanent IP address on full Jetstram so its available, they say a server may not always be suited to jetstream, to talk to them about it, so it must be allowed. Be aware though VK due to the huge amount of data you intend to stream or allow access to, 6 Gb on Jetstream will cost $500-$600 per month, however compared to 6Gb of web space at $59,000 per month its cheap. ($25 for 25 Mb, $10 per Mb above that) Seriously, wouldnt a DVD burner and postage be cheaper? (Figures from Xtra website) |

| 66194 | 2002-07-28 08:51:00 | 6GB of international traffic is going to cost a fair bit (I'd imagine). What internet connection does your [insert the person] have. As 6GB is a lot of data to download unless you've got some really flash internet connection. That's also a heck of a lot to upload with a 56K, you could arrange to drop it off some other way? Why not just send the CD/VHS/VCD or what ever instead? http://www.no-ip.org will give you a fixed address for a changing IP. |

Any sugestions? v.k, email aaron at thinklab dot co dot nz, he might be able to help you out, but don't quote me on that one :) the capacity might not suit, but you never know. Mike. |

| 66197 | 2002-07-28 09:02:00 | thanks again everyone, i'll try send all the vids as a dvd rom. as godfather explained earlier, 500 x (anything) is quite expensive + india is still pretty far behind in broadband. so thanks again everyone. cheers, v.K------------- :D |
