HTTP File Server, fast file sharing has never been easier - video tutorial

Hi friends, today's tutorial you will see how to transfer files in a very simple way with the help of HTTP File Server or HFS briefly.
With HFS only takes 5 seconds to send the download link person who wants to download files from us, also the / who download boots from us we can / can send files via the browser, he / they do not have to install nothing at all.
Transferring files has never been easier, HTTP File Server should not be installed, it runs directly using an executable, like a soft portable, settings, files and folders share charts can be saved to a file that can be loaded the next time the application HFS so share your settings and will not be lost.
For folder sharing there are two settings, the first is the "Real" mode, this mode is preferable when we have large files, also the "Real" mode must be used if we want to allow uploading that folder, the second share mode for folders it is the "Virtual" one, it is recommended for small files, the "Virtual" mode does not allow uploading to that folder.
Can be created and user accounts so they can grant privileges differentially folders, ie folders can be created for each friend, those folders can be accessed only by user with access rights.
If someone wants to download it will download all the contents of a folder, use the option pote content archiving creates an archive that will include all the contents of that folder, which ultimately will discharge.
For those who have a modem or router, it is necessary to make a setting Port Forwarding in modem or router to link the IP public and private (assigned by the router), for those who do not know how to do port forwarding, we have a tutorial video routers and Port Forwarding.
I hope beloved HTTP File Server server, I discovered when I no longer can stand without it, the software is ideal for transferring files between two or more computers.

  • \ 'S very hard this tutorial about HTTP File Server, I and I can give my friend the files without using the usb stick.

  • Hello, I liked this tutorial, just help me but did not know how to do port forwarding, or as it is called, I router Belkin, if necessary version'll put (I think it is the same food over cam all) fail any of the damned

    • SpeedY: Belkin

      Here's a tutorial on port forwarding for Belkin routers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQ-DnwQ9suc
      If you don't know what local ip your computer has, you can open the cmd and type ipconfig or ipconfig / all there.

      Make sure that no firewall puts sticks in your wheels ... disable them or do it in such a way as to leave port 80 free for the hfs.exe application.
      Disables the Windows firewall (not brilliant anyway).
      Be careful if you have a security suite installed: for example: eset smart security, norton internet security, kaspersky internet security. They also have a built-in firewall ... see how you configure them.

      Optionally you can set another port for the hfs.exe application. Click where it says "port", choose another port and click ok. For example, if you set port 17080, then the link you send to friends will be something like this: http://ipultauextern:17080

  • It would be good to scan this application with virustotal first and talk after !!! Please send your Cristi !!!

      I do not understand what you mean!
      Is a server and antivirus programs guy treats as a server, the total virus are several engines that detect this server as, ironically, a server.
      We must not let ourselves overwhelmed by paranoia, there would be no Internet servers.
      A server is not a bad thing can become a bad thing when used for other purposes, like a knife can be used for vegetable slicers or murder ...

        You are right. But you see on my site in the tutorial I made I announced that this server is interpreted as a Trojan detected by several AV. But I recommended to people who want antivirus with more aggressive settings to put the application to exceptions. No, everything is ok exactly as you said. Thanks for the answer and I would have the request if you know something ..... a way to devirus the sites!
