manual downloading is coming along- after an fruitless search of HP's ftp site, a google site search is proving far more useful, and I've got a nice pile of manuals cued for download |

Coppernic Agent is a good way of doing multiple searches you can finlter and save |

so how's it work with wine? |

Sorry, not run it in Linux. Copernic has been around since the 90's, (It's how we searched before web engines became popular) they may have a Linux version. I'll check. |

Looks like version 6.11 was tested and given a gold rating under Wine, so it looks like it should work well. |

also has SketchCow been dumping textfiles.com into IA, cause AFAIK, they have only the time capsule, and thats old |

getting the urls for the manuals is the hardest part- after that any computer with wget can grab them |

Medor or Darkmedor, has his mirror of www.ut-files.com and says once he has sorted it, it will be going live again |

ut-files recently had a crisis as it is hosted by another UT mad private individual by the tag "SKILLS" |

The site is payed for by donations, and that is a risk |

medors mirror is the only other complete and live copy of ut-files.com. I have been suggesting combining mirrors via a portal like the Aminet uses. Then using CoralCDN in all the links, and create a massive UnrealCDN |

Question to the team: Have you been able to use "FXP" protocol to do site to site transfers ? |

I've heard of it but never tried |

folks, this is a little flakey, but otherwise it's perfect- you get the website url and the title of the page, which is great for service manuals since they seem to have numeric-only identifiers a lot: http://jurnsearch.wordpress.com/2012/01/27/how-to-extract-google-search-results-with-url-title-and-snippet-in-a-csv-file/ |

FXP is very handy, for those who have the time, but not the bandwidth or storage capacity. I used to use it at work to move stuff from sites to my private folder on a friends server. Igloo has a Linux version, have a look. Again their devs may be able to work with you for a custom version if needed. http://www.iglooftp.com/linux/ |

BTW peeps, I asked the author of the Opera Webcache plugin, to add CoralCDN and the Web Archive's live URLs. you can now manually drag pages into the Wayback Machine. I do it regularly with pages and files I find important. (saving the web a little at a time) Another good reason to use Opera browser :D |

coralcdn isn't a permanent archive though right, just a load balancer that will purge old stuff out as new stuff comes in? |

coralcdn has a ~1h expiry, iirc |

@chronomex The flush time of Coral is something I have been wanting to know. is this based on entry to the CDN, or last access? |
|

chronomex |
I'm pretty sure it's X minutes from last access, with some upper bound on lifetime without refresh |

I have been suggesting to a few admins of some Unreal based servers, that DLs and redirects for game servers, be routed through it as a test. That is good to know |

Dr-Flay |
Game files tend to be temporary, but private hosted servers sometimes take a hammering |
|

|
Dr-Flay |
So as long as people keep joining the server frequently, even if the redirect fails, gamers should experience little impact. Groovy. Can't let anything stop people shooting their best friends. |
