Ok guys, sorry 'bout that thread I put up awhile ago, I wasn't quite ready to test this bitch out.

So here's how it's gonna be:

My upload is around 40-50kbps

I'm allowing 15 users at one time under an anonymous login. Remember this, because if you can't get in....it's because you're in line. I don't anticipate more than 15 people being on at once anyway, based on the traffic I had last time and based on the average amount of people that around here(metaltabs) at one time. So please, for the sake of my PC and out of respect for your fellow metaltabber, don't clog the lines.

I'm allowing all users to upload and obviously download.

Same rules apply like they did last time, if you weren't here or don't remember let me refresh your memory.

Files will only be uploaded by users upon request by a Metaltabs member. DO NOT UPLOAD UNLESS IT'S BEEN REQUESTED. Had numerous problems with that last time, Joe Blow uploading Korn's entire album just for the fuck of it. Anyways, here's an example of how to do this properly.

Example.

MetaltabsUser#1: "Hey does anyone have [insert album or song name] by [insert band name]?

MetaltabsUser#2: "I have it, I'll upload them to that faggot, slayme's FTP"


Feel free to use the term "faggot" when referring to me as last I checked I was winning in that now deleted Site Feedback thread on who's gay.

Simple enough isn't it? Now, this first day is gonna be trial and error so go easy on me. All requests will be posted in this thread, and any problems you're having with it can be posted in here as well. So, here goes.

Play nice:

ftp://67.9.96.38




One last thing, don't give that out to anyone outside of Metaltabs, that's ours and no one elses.

Might I be the first person to thank Slayme for his tireless work on the pooling of terrible and evil music for all. This is our third collective file-sharing effort.

And don't fucking give the fucking FTP address to anyone. Our bandwidth. OURS! Not theirs.

Thanks, jim.



Somebody fucking use the god damn thing!! I need to see it work!

I should clarify, you don't HAVE to upload just to browse. I've got my own personal library on there, take a look fuck around...somebody do something!

great work slayme, and thanks.

does anyone want a song? i can upload 2 martyr songs

__________________

I think I mistakenly had it set for only the Anthrax folder, that's been fixed.

Yeah, "mistakenly."

REQ: Does anybody have a chimiara(sp?) album they can upload?
slayme i think u said u had one in the bands thread think u can upload it for me??

__________________

and slayme i tried clicking your link and it dosnt work it just goes to a white page with a flashlight thing(searching for your site) but it dosnt bring up anything o well ill try later

__________________

I have Chimaira's "Pass out of Existence" album already there.

I don't show you as trying to log in, Piper. Try again.

for those without an ftp program, cute ftp and ws_ftp are both very good programs. get them at http://www.downloads.com

__________________

I was about to mention that, thanks weijia. Most of you will be able to browse with your browser and won't have any problems, but if you really want full control and make it a whole lot easier on yourself then follow weijia's link.

Any Black Label Society fans out there?


The Blessed Hellride is up. Who's your daddy?

It's located in the "Zakk Wylde" folder in both seperate track and zipped format.



Some tracks have a slight buzz, the rip isn't perfect in places but hey, it's a fucking pre-release a month early.

Enjoy.




Ok, everything is set to go. Thanks to Mofoism for helpin me test this shite out.

Word, she's a beauty slayme!

Everyone, use this marvelous idea to your advantage.. i have uploaded death is the hunter by the crown.. so fucking download it !!

or else.. the great mofo... will take his pants off

i have the following crown albums

crowned in terror
deathrace king 2000
hell is here
the burning (crown of thorns)

you all must get into this band, greatly under-appreciated by the masses

__________________

Fuck, this is great

I'm downloading shitloads right now, I've got a request, has anyone got some Suffocation cd's? since its hard to get them over here....

Okay, I've got heaps to offer too, but mostly Euro hardcore/metal/metalcore, bands most of you probably never heard of, I can upload some examples if you guys are interested.


great job on the ftp ''Faggot''

Damn right.

Pick the 6 best songs from bands you think we don't know and upload them. Educate us. Please. Thank you.

then what are you waiting for !!! upload!!!

as a supreme crownhead ive been loookin for that one for awhile now!!

__________________

that's hardcore, fool but I will upload a couple of their songs,

I'll upload some metalstuff in a new folder, I'll name it Euro, and I'll put some random stuff in there, I'm on a 56k now, so I'll only upload a few, but I'll put in some more next week.

ohyeah has anyone ever heard of Krabathor?

Lord Arioch, if you can, upload some of that Suffocation stuff


EDIT: I can't log onto the server, I'm probably doing something wrong, I'm using WS_FTP, hostname ftp://67.9.96.38:2121 and no name/pass... but ehm, It gives a connection error.

Speaking of readily available shit, please don't upload or request things that are commonplace in the metalworld. Let's keep it like last time.

that "your mp3 collection thread" can work really well with this. now we can tell if someone has some good songs.

__________________

just downloaded Exodus - bonded by blood as a tester, and it works great. cool shit.

I should add this.


I have it set up to only accept 2 concurrent logins from the same IP address, and the connection times out if you're idle for 5 minutes or longer.

The idle timeout is basically to ensure that you can't sit on the lines forever not doing shit. No worries though, it won't time out during any transfers, you have all the time in the world to downlload

Mkay, I can't upload yet but the downloads work great, I didn't hear much of strapping young lad yet, but it's fucking awsome

I saw some neat shit on there, but most of it is allready in my cd collection, the haunted, Crowbar etc... but what are the fucking dropkick murphy's doing there??

argh! its not working for me im clicking on the artist then album and then a song, and then it opens up a internet window, and after like 7 seconds it loads up the error page 'This page cannot be displayed'

Whats happening?!

__________________

Def - can't upload as in it's not working, or you don't want to upload?

Oh, and the Murphys rule.



tatter3d - What kind of connection are you on, are you using your browser to connect and what version of browser do you have?

I dunno Tatter3d, try again, maybe your 56k isn't hauling enough ass, close other applications and try again.

I'm downloading Killswitch Engage now (didn't have that album yet)....

Ehm, I still can't get on to upload but I'll try another time, the line is probably taken.

56kers are definitely not going to have as pleasant of an experience, you're right.


Mofoism uploaded something just fine last night, Def, it should work. You're the only one on right now.

Ok, ill close some shit down

Ive got all three killswitch albums, i started a thread about them in bands ages ago when i first came, but memnoch kept going ''i bet there a nu-metal band! blah blah!''

Yeah anyway ill try the FTP now.! cheers!

__________________

I wouldn't bother uploading unless you're on a DSL/Cable connection anyway.

Alright man, hopefully you'll get on no problems.

Killswitch is kick ass, fuckin good stuff. Lookin forward to their new disc.

I closed msn and everything down..it still loaded up the page cannot be displayed thing again!

Is it because im an annonymous user?

__________________

Nope, it's not working, ehm, I'm just logging in without user/pass on the FTP://bla adress you posted, I'm probably doing something wrong.

Everyone is an anonymous user. What version of Internet Explorer do you have? You need at least 5.0 I believe to browse the FTP with your browser.

Sorry but i dont know much about my computer, how could i find out what explorer i have?

__________________

edit:

nevermind. continue using the anonymous login, I just tested the upload and it works fine.

look in the tabs, upper right in the middle of your browser, click on Help, then click on About internet explorer


ehm, fuck, I tried that FTP adres, but it gave the same error, ehm, is there something I could have been doing wrong?

Cheers, Mine is a-

Version: 6.0

and its above 5.0 i cant think why its not working now....?

__________________

Disregard that other login, Def.


Hey tatter3d, I'm showing a guy on dial-up from the UK online. Is that you?

No it isnt

__________________

I was online a minute ago (that's a .nl)

I can't seem to log on with the WS_FTP program, can you make a screenshot or something of your login screen at your ftp program? I must be forgetting something, I dunno why it's not working.

Give me a minute, def.

Def- you got a messenger of some kind?


I loaded up WS_FTP and got the same shit you did.

Just for kicks def, enter this as the address in WS_FTP instead.

ftp://192.168.254.61/

There is no password.

ehm..guys, i need some explanation because i'm 15, dutch, a shemale and retarded. I just downloaden cuteFTP, do i have to copy/paste those ftp://67.9.96:2121 stuff in the HOST box? if so it aint working, it sais it can't connect to server

__________________

If you're pasting that exact address, you're missing a few numbers.

ftp://67.9.96.38:2121

i think i have it. i typed metaltabs.com in the field and now i'm in a metaltabs.com folder with different folders:

bin
etc
lib
mail
pub

thats it

What in THE hell are you doing, Doctor???

ftp://67.9.96.38:2121


Go. Play.

well what the flying fuck should i play in there, the only thing i get to see is a fucking retarded flashlight sekking a folder,

KAIOKEN!!!

__________________

same here... flashlight, then after several minutes, this: "an error occurred opening that folder on the FTP server. Make sure you have permission to access that folder."

__________________

Calm down, Doctor, it's not rocket science. I also don't know what the cute ftp interface looks like, I'm familiar with Bulletproof FTP and Ws_FTP.

In the address, or "host" field you enter my IP which is this: ftp://67.9.96.38:2121 If it asks for a password you can leave it blank, or enter your email address it doesn't matter.

If you're on dial up, it may take awhile longer. Gotta remember you're trying to connect to a computer(mine) which is quite aways away from you.

Because alot of you are so far away, I upped the timeout on the server.

i'll download ws_ftp, thnx

Guys, I know for a fact this FTP is up and running. I've had numerous people across the country verify that the upload and download is working correctly.

yeah slayme, I use msn, my handle is edmantheruler@hotmail.com

I just got back from basslessons, I'm trying it again now, but it gives the same old 'connection failure' again... I don't know, maybe it's not possible to log in outside of the US? can't be eh?

my Ws_ftp tells this:
Connecting to 255.255.255.255:21
Connection Failure,

but, the host name is correct, why the fuck is it connecting to 255.255.255.255.255:21?
ehm, you got the same error with Ws_ftp? what program are using that's WORKING?

the FTP IS up and running though becuase I can download, no probs, but I can't seem to get in with an ftp program (yet..)

Doctor, you're in the metaltabs.com ftp server, which is locked, its just the webserver of metaltabs, nothing interesting there. Ohyeah, I'll upload some kickass euro hardcore/metalcore when I get in (including backfire especially for you, shemale)

I GOT A REQUEST HERE

MORBID ANGEL - ENTANGLED IN CHAOS

FUCKIN RARE ALBUM

__________________

Delete - I have Entangled already there.


Def - did you try logging in with that other IP I put up?

ftp://192.168.254.61

Ok everyone, I apologize for the fuckups but it's still early in the ballgame and I'm learning alot of this as we go.

Don't bother accessing the ftp server for the time being, I'll post back in here with developments.


Don't abandon hope, I WILL GET THIS MOTHERFUCKER WORKING.

Yeah, same shit as I got earlier, connection failure, has anyone from europe tried uploading yet?

EDIT:

okay I'll be waiting

Christ, this is a headache. It's up now.

ftp://67.9.96.38:2121


From what I'm gathering, dial up users are having some difficulty and the server has not let any connections in twice, once yesterday and now once today. I'm looking into this shit.


For now, I need everyone on this thing. Try and break it, upload/download whatever. I need to see this function really heavily.

When I click on anything it just says it cannot find the webpage.

Listen up everyone. All of you having trouble getting to the site, need to download and install this. It's an FTP client, and it was built by the same co. that created the Server software I'm running.

Install the bitch, open it up, hit the connect button at the top, enter my ftp server name(ftp://67.9.96.38:2121)and go.

you just connected to the metaltabs.com server. retarded hacker

if it says:

does that mean it's full?

__________________

No, it's not full. I have it set for unlimited users now.

I'm tellin you guys, just change your browser security settings and it'll be fine. Go into internet options, click advanced, check the boxes SSL 2.0 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0.

Sane did it and it worked fine for him then.

still working for me !

Mofoism just uploaded the entire album "The Crown - Crowned in Terror" to the FTP. Thanks, Mofo!


So who's the guy that's been leeching album after album? Come on, you know who you are.

hehe can i do damage in there?
lol

it doesnt work on ws_ftp, but i can access it from internet explorer.

__________________

I downloaded FTP voyager and tried... it times out every time, or I get a connection error
but ehm, if you're on kazaa you can't find stuff from friend out of canada/us either, so maybe it's on different nets or something.. but that wouldn't make sense since I'm on a web1000 account too *US* so that shouldn't work either.... ehm, fucked.

Very strange indeed.

so i downloaded ftp voyager and at the left is this field with a adres in it, so i pasted slaymes IP-adres, and it keeps giving an error, same problem as def man.

__________________

ARRGGGHH!!! Wow, it's been a helluva first few days hasn't it? I think I've got this bitch figured.


Everyone using FTPVoyager, put this in the field marked "FTP Site:" 67.9.96.38

No, ftp://, no :2121, just 67.9.96.38 That's it. After that, make sure you have anonymous login checked and you're set to go. Mofoism and I just checked it out and it works perfectly.


Those of you still wishing to use Internet Explorer, ftp://67.9.96.38



Disregard all other shit before this post. Thanks guys, now fucking try it out!

arg!!! thats it!! no "ftp"s

__________________

does it work for you weijia?

cuz, I'm trying it right now, like slayme said, no ftp shit, no 21's and I keep getting connection timeout... but I'm on a 56k now... still...

this shit is too complicated for me, i read thw hole thread and wouldnt have a clue wats goin on

__________________

Ok guys, apologies to those that are still having problems, I don't kno what to tell you. It's up and running, doin' fine.



Got 2 cool additions today

Chimaira - The Impossibility of Reason. God, this album is killer! This pre-release has a watermark in several tracks which have been edited out. You'll get a second or two of muted sound, but hey it's a pre-release for an album that kicks ass!


Vital Remains - Dechristianize. I haven't listened to it yet, and actually the only reason I bothered with it is because Glen Benton handled the vocal duties on this new album, otherwise all the older Vital Remains I've heard is positively crap. Anyways, figured alot of you would want to hear this one.


I've also obtained a re-ripped version of BLS THe Blessed Hellride, it's a clean nice rip with no distortion.

it seems to work perfectly. try connecting to 67.9.96.38

__________________

Mine still dont work!

If anyone can upload the new Hate Eternal - King of Kings, that would be awesome. Slayme im gunna upload Decapitated - Nihility, how do I do that?

__________________

I don't know if this song is up on there yet because i can't get on the FTP but if it isn't can someone upload Emperor-I am the black wizards please.

__________________

i'll upload it. slayme, can we create folders?

__________________

Mwuhaahahhahah!!!

I didn't do anything wrong connecting though, but its just working all of a sudden!
Anyways, thanks for all the tips and shit guys, I'm able to upload now, I can make a new directory ''Euro'' or something and put some euro hardcore/metalcore in there?

ITS WORKING!!!!!! YES!!! THANKYOU FTP VOYAGER!!!

THANKS SLAYME!

WOOHOO..,..


ok..im calm!

Yes.





Def and tatter3d - glad it's working for you.

Yeah, where do i find the music i downloaded what do i click?

__________________

I can't connect anymore it says Connection Failure. Is that because 15 people are already in it? or something.

__________________

In FTPVoyager if you don't specify a download folder, it puts the files directly in the C drive. Just open up My Computer, click on the C drive and it'll be in there.

Carnivorous - It's not because of the amount of users.

Ahh right found them all! hiding in the cd drive! eh!

Cheers, how do i specify a folder for them..just click the create a folder button?

__________________

I'm not exactly sure. Poke around in it and see if you can find out. I'll look as well.

When I click connect to 67.9.96.38:2121 it asks me who I am and I can't leave it blank so I click anomynous or however you spell it could that be why?

__________________

Checking anonymous should work for you.

It didn't work. So I checked those 3 boxes you said SSL and the TSL or whatever I downloaded FTP_Voyager and tryed using that instead of FTP_pro or whatever it was and I click connect I check Anomynous and put 67.9.96.38 in the FTP part and in the name i put music and description i put music and it goes to Succesful reconnect. Attempting to resend failed command. =/
