Anyoen know of any free homepage script? eg. Allmanage (I can't donwload anymore)

Why can't you download allmanage any longer?
I think I still have a copy of the allmanage
zip file from way back.

They said that it's no longer available. Do you have the mysql version?

No, its from way back. Just perl.

Hello, I have allmanage mysql version. dont have the orignal only have a hacked version. I just tidyed the inside up. looked rather nasty and now im customising the admin section.


Then i will begin making my own called technics power browser :-).


Do you want my hacked version?.

Hacked version? What do you mean? What's good about the hacked version? I thought it's FREE anyhow :)

Ill talk to you about it on human click lol.

Technics, while your at it, could you email me the "hacked" verions please? :)

Hey Technics,

Send me the hacked version of allmanage too. I might be using it sometime soon. :)

My email is weishen@pl.jaring.my or you can talk to me through ICQ (UIN #8671507). Thank you.

I showed dynasty it earlier he gave me some new ideas but if you email me ill put you on the list of people to send it to when complete :-).

technics@flashtechnics.com

I went to the AllManage site and sure enough they took away the downloads. The download URL kept going to a 404 Error.

But I just kept lopping off parts of the URL and ended up at a Unix directory listing and found all the AllManage downloads in this directory:

http://youthofamerica.org/prowebpages/cgi/allmanage_files_do_not_give_out/

Get them while you can. Not my fault they don't know to leave an index.html file in a directory. :)

Hahhaha.. wow..

Thanks but I'm waiting for Technics to finish "hacking" the already improved version.

I'm getting there lol.

what's all manage?

Allmanage - Is a simple cgi/mysql script that will allow you to run a fwp you could run a paid host from it but i would advise against it.

It allows your users to either make sites in an advanced editor or basic editor also allows them to upload files.

very similar to homefree at http://www.solutionscripts.com.

What's the ETA Technics? :)

fwp? So you can run a webhosting service within your current webhost service? and charge a small amount of money for it?

Most host will not let you do this. Some do! You might want to read ther policy before signing up.

Dumbness sets in ETA ?

estimated time of arrival...basically when do you expect to finish it.

Not sure. i was hoping for late next week but thats looking less and less likely. I found another security hole today.

In my version i have removed the create sub-directorys. I did this for a security reason but i could put it back in i guess, Wouldnt advise it though.

The layout im still debating whether to leave it in tables or change it completly.

Anyones ideas would be welcomed. I.E Features , layout etc etc.

will there a big security hole if you leave the create sub-dir in? I think users would woudl that because their site will more more organize.. instead of having all files in 1 dir.

There is a risk if you run it from your main directory. But if you give your users an addie like this yourdomain.co.uk/users/ there will not be a security risk. i was making my version for use in the main directory. i may however change my mind.

Well you could write a lil stealth redirection script, which changes the URL? so when the user types in
http://www.yourdomain.co.uk/name --> he would actually goto
http://www.yourdomain.co.uk/sites/name. I think this is also known as URL masking? :)

Yes, I think that having http://www.yourdomain.com/user is more attractive.

Kunal's ideal is good.. maybe we can do URL masking

can you set quotas and such?

TechNics, what's ur SN for Yahoo IM?

DjSy2000 - Yahoo .....


Yes you can set quotas. You can also make indivdual quotas where 40 users might have 3mb and someone pays you to give them an extra 10mb you can do this without it changing the previous 40 users.

Stealth idea - I'll consider that. I can however set it up so that it can create deeper subs but then i have to remove the up on level button as it somehow takes you into the main directory. I tried diffrent methods to stop that but it just would not work. Maybe if i tied it into the textbox rather than tables it would work.

I haven't installed AllManage but it seems like a very powerful program.

But what is wrong with it? Technics is writing a hack of it? Someone else mentioned security concerns. What are the shortcomings with AllManage that I don't know about?

Can someone explain to me why I shouldn't be putting AllManage on one of my domains?

Thanks in advance,

Sean

Sean,

As it's a good script all in all. But the owner did leave some big holes in the script that could cause you a big headache.

Although he had put in place a system to prevent people uploading illegal files it did not work. I know this because i tested it lol. Theres a part in the allmanage.pl script near the top which is supposed to block any file not listed in it. You have to edit it manually. He was supposed tobe in the new version allowing u to edit this from the admin panel. But guess he wont be making a new version.

I mentioned the part about running it from the main directory in an earlier post.

Theres a few other minor little bugs but they are in the admin script which i have fixed.

Hey technics, another thing you can do is make the users folder his root folder. I think apache lets one do this, so he wont be able to move up beyond the folder you specify. Try it out :)


Also, pls try and get FTP enabled. ;)

FTP - I have been working on that. But its slightly confussing. i looked at homefree's ftp feature and tryed to get ideas from it but failed. so i installed a version of homefree to test it out. I put in the correct paths and did all the required work but it did not work.

So im not sure about how todo ftp but its a feature i want to add.

explain to me more about the root feature please i dont quite understand.

First, how are you creating the account? how are you doing the authentication and stuff???

It's automatic. but it can be done on admin approval.

But how is the automatic thing happening?? as in, how is it creating the folders and how is authenticating the user trying to access it?

If you could take the time to list me Technics I would like it as well. (thomas@gamport.net)

Is this program reliable for someone looking to give away free space long-term? Or should anyone serious about such a venture use HomeFree? :)

Technic, I too would like a copy. webmaster@gembassy.com thanks.

Technic,

If you could add me to the list for copies of your version when complete, I'd be grateful. I can be reached at spcover@scarsdaletech.com.

Thanks in advance,

Sean

Same here! chris@movieforums.com :D

Technics, I've download the script to see what improvements I can make. If you'd like to send me what you've done so far (and any tidbits from Home Free), it would save me alot time--maybe duplication as well. I would like to see what I can add to it.

You say it's supposed to have an FTP feature but it's not working? Anything else I should know?

Won't get to it till late next week but sounds interesting. I already have a script that (I think) provides the same as AllMange, but it is set for 3 (and only 3) pages. Didn't want to get into the MegaByte area but I don't mind providing people 3 Free pages.

plz send it to me is well webmaster@loisandclark.co.uk

Thanks Alot

I'm going to setup a mailing list so that you can all subscribe i could be here forever lol.

I got alot of free homepage scripts. Conctact me if interested.

So what's the deal Adam, sent you an Email on the 14th. Did you receive it???

Can homefree be used by anyone on their site or would you have to have a dedicted server?

If you have a website, you can use homefree I believe.

Technics.. I would like to confirm my reservation for a first class seat on Allmanage Airline please :) eheheh

lol ..... i havent done anything with the script for 2 weeks now guess i should get some work done.

aww man.. :) hehee.. but we have patient :)

i have done some work on the allmanage script today. i lost my first hack somehow.

I have made it secure to offer yourdomain.com/user. I did it using javascript which i hope is secure enough. i know someone out there will be able to find a hole in it though.

Great! We're looking forward to see the new baby :)

yeah! i'm sure some of us can setup some mirrors of it :)
