jriggs Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Couldnt think of a good place to post this, please move as appropriate I have 2 servers in separate locations - One is an ISP shared server, and the other sits in my house. I'm wondering if there is a way to host an identical file on both boxes and when a user wants to download the file I can pull pieces off of both boxes simultaneously. The idea being that one server has 300Kb/s up and the other has 200Kb/s up so that the file could be dl'd at around 500Kb/s +- because of overhead. I might even be able to find a couple other mirrors to further enhance speeds. Both servers are *nix boxes, admin on 1 root on the other. Anyone have an idea about how to go about this, google is not yielding much help...perhaps I just need the right terminology.

corbin Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I don't think that's possible. The user could maybe do it with a downloader though. Or, you could split the files into parts and have the user rejoin the parts on his/her computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
