Spring has been
having difficulty FTPing to her site. Her computer is currently
sitting behind a firewall, so to use FTP she has to use passive
mode.
But … her web host has stuck the FTP server behind a
firewall, where it doesn't work in passive mode.
So, she can't FTP to her web host.
I wasn't sure how to configure ProFTPD to do FTP proxying, so I
downloaded jftpgw, an FTP proxy. I
wanted it to work in conjunction with ProFTPD, so it took some work (namely,
getting ProFTPD to not bind to every IP address on the firewall, and setting up an extra IP
address for the proxy FTP program to run on.
The contortions one must go through when you only have a single IP address.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
