Iron has dropped me a few PM's he is talented, don't know why he did not post them publicly, if he wants them ripped he is an admin ;)

They have still not contacted me back, so I do not know what it will be called, logos etc.

How about a slogan... Your one stop *nix distro shop... Think about it I do indeed cover all bases Main server (soon to be similar to getdeb.net but with source openly published for others), software repo, forum, and now A main distro server. Under no condition will I buy another domain / server, I really will have my hands full probably for a year, dropping distros along the way. More of my time will now be consumed in websites, I need about 5 web programmers that really understand what I am trying to achieve ;)

Breakdown of stats
:
This forum opened about a month or so (bare in mind no iso etc to download):
Code: Select all
16.   Total data transferred    1.771 GB
17.   Total data transferred in last 7 days    683.288 MB


Solid pages & attachments

Main server:
Code: Select all
19.   Total data transferred    3.210 TB
20.   Total data transferred in last 7 days    17.908 GB


About 30 million requests, nothing but webpages

Download Server:
Code: Select all
16.   Total data transferred    2.957 TB
17.   Total data transferred in last 7 days    740.024 GB

inaccurate about 13 TB are lost had to shut down and re-open the acct. Find a hosting company that is fast and allows 10+ TB transfer / mo not going to happen.

Repo traffic:
Code: Select all
16.   Total data transferred    6.756 TB
17.   Total data transferred in last 7 days    173.858 GB


Also inaccurate had to shut it down and seen catastrophic events when I did so, paid today to upgrade it hopefully won't happen again.

Most don't know this but I have a test server testubuntusoftware.info won't say anymore then that.

Enter a main distro server, it will be php url re-directed, only PR bleed will be from this server, this server will probably always have a zero, but oh well think about it. I need to write a S.E.O. thread to help others.

I would like to give an example this site has a zero, zip, ziltch, squat Page rank and google loves it. For the terms involved do you think it ends there? I did make 1 mistake trying to setup the forum on my main server it bled 2 points from me, people like to post outgoing links in a forum, this bleeds off PR, OK NP problem solved, a regular php redirection url google does not care for it expects to see the info involved a simple solution in which most op for:
Code: Select all
<? header('Location: http://forumubuntusoftware.info/index.php'); ?>


well now if forum topic 12 has been indexed it redirects them to your home page this is not the solution... The real solution is compliance:
Code: Select all
<?php
/* Redirect to a different page in the current directory that was requested */
$forum  = $_REQUEST['f'];
$topic = $_REQUEST['t'];
$page = $_REQUEST['p'];
if (empty($forum)) {
}else{
$complete="?f=" . $forum;
}
if (empty($topic)) {
}else{
$complete=$complete . "&t=" . $topic;
}
if (empty($page)) {
}else{
$complete=$complete . "&p=" . $page;
}
if ($complete != "") {
header("Location: http://forumubuntusoftware.info/index.php" . $complete);
}else{
header("Location: http://forumubuntusoftware.info/index.php");
}
exit;
?>


Yes, I did have to write this by hand, if I help one other user, I have done my job. This is probably not the place to post it & don't care ;) I like the ability to be able to do so. Makes one wonder how much can be learned by reading a "raid how to" I have written and learn about compiz ;) As an example.

Let TheeMahn break it down
:
Code: Select all
<? header('Location: http://forumubuntusoftware.info/index.php'); ?>

Be it a person, be it a search engine even though they were wanting to view my FAQ gets thrown to my forum homepage, hmm the end user is disgusted don't think for a second google / yahoo is not as well.

The code at a glance:
Code: Select all
<?php
/* Redirect to a different page in the current directory that was requested */

this does squat other then set on the server level a php session the rest comments.

Set Variables:
Code: Select all
$forum  = $_REQUEST['f'];
$topic = $_REQUEST['t'];
$page = $_REQUEST['p'];

Once again does nothing other then assign Varibles I.E. X = 12. of the URL requested and assigns those variables accordingly, subforum, page / topic they wanted to view.

Show me where it is at:
Code: Select all
if (empty($forum)) {
}else{
$complete="?f=" . $forum;
}
if (empty($topic)) {
}else{
$complete=$complete . "&t=" . $topic;
}
if (empty($page)) {
}else{
$complete=$complete . "&p=" . $page;
}
if ($complete != "") {
header("Location: http://forumubuntusoftware.info/index.php" . $complete);
}else{
header("Location: http://forumubuntusoftware.info/index.php");
}
exit;
?>


O.K. alot has transpired here, I don't have all day... This draws in the url the end user or bot has asked for and reassigns the variables you collected into the url and sends them to the exact place they requested. If all else fails.. IE I deleted that tread to my homepage.

I am just a ball of information ;)
