XFileSharing Pro - Is it possible to mask or hide ip of file servers?

[joebloggs]

So that it appears that all data is being served from the main website server?

Therefore any abuse complaints will only go to the datacenter hosting main website?

so for instance the file server from


sub1.domain.com


just looks to be dowloading from domain.com

thanks for any help

There will always be a link to the fileserver.

The only way is to setup a nginx proxy. But your costs will go up as you need much more bw. And you will just the get the DMCA to the proxy instead.

There is way where you can own the IP-Range and set the dmca email there.

You can also run your own network, owning both ips and the routing.

I am also interested in this. Someone told me it could be made with rewrite rules but not sure how to achieve this. If anyone knows, please post here.

What you could do is to not display the address on the download page and display something else, example Download File. However the file server's address can still be seen in the status bar (on mouse over).

In download2.html:

original:

Code: Select all

<a href="<TMPL_VAR direct_link>"><TMPL_VAR direct_link></a>

modified:

Code: Select all

<a href="<TMPL_VAR direct_link>">Download File</a>

This will display something like Download File.
