Hello,
i will the File-Servers IPs hidden.

only show the ip from main-server.

e.g.
a user download a file from server 3.

main-server downloading this file from server 3 and simultaneously send the data to the user.

the user see only the main-server ip.

any ideas?

i guess

wants the front end web servers to be liable for any dmca notices, so even if thy go down; he can just setup a second proxy box and still continue the site

I still don't get it. What's the problem having your servers setup like this?

www.site.com
www2.site.com
www3.site.com
etc.

agree, u want mainsite ip to be shown ? why so ? the setup would be more annonymous if it wasnt the main box

Denis, use nginx as a reverse proxy that should do the trick

he means the same that i mean

i use my other server for the speed and the uptime
and a second server as download server

the biggest problem i got now , they are atking my file server

how can they atk my fileserver ?? because they got my file server ip

if you can proxify it then they cant atk your file server and they dont know how many servers you have

its more secure and more fun

same as direct links

if you get a direct link then you got the server ip of where you downlaod from
that can be abused
but if it shows your main server , then it looks like those files are stored local and then your other servers doesnt suffer from a massive DOS atk (or any other kind of atks )

thats the main reason for it , the other reason is because it is more fun to let the clients think that you store 5TB on 1 single server
and that they cant figure out where those files are coming from

they attack ur main box = taking ur whole site down

your talking more of decentralized storage with a web front server, i dont see a point of this bcoz 1 more box is easy to fall then multiple boxes

well , its easyer to secure 1 box then more boxes

and if you ban ip's then they are realy banend , els you need to ban them from muliple servers instead 1 server

it got some good things but some bad things to ^^

good thing is that banning and stuff (you need to do it only 1 time)

bad thing
if it goes down then you are screwed :S
but thats now to ?? or isnt it ??

did you implement this ?

you can use some kinda caching server on front end , something like ncache or varnish

i am myself looking for a similar solution to serve some files, using a cache server
