As long as nothing screwy happens in the next 24 hours, then tomorrow I'll start creating accounts.

There's no registration process, I just create the accounts manually in the DB. 😀

Could it be an idea to create moderators for the different sections? The content could use a "clean-up" to sort out descriptions, remove duplicates, etc.

I've been thinking that for a while.

That said, anybody with an account can edit any file, so if someone wants to take up that role they can just go ahead and start fixing! 😀

Should be pre-approved list though, so if anyone starts wondering why "vetz" have edited their post they can find official info on it. I could probably do some edits in the video section.

Oh yeah, that's a good point actually.

Um, let me come up with something. Might not be immediately, but some time this week with a bit of luck.

Two ways to do it simply:

1. Add the names in the first post in this thread.
2. Add a special icon/color to the persons who are official moderators.

I haven't been able to replicate the issue, unfortunately.

Are you able to connect with other clients, like FileZilla or WinSCP? (Just wondering whether it's a server/network issue, or just with TC)

Yes, Filezilla and Winscp work fine. Total Cmd would be more convenient, that's all.

I did a little digging, here's what I found:

- There is a version of the plugin that doesn't rely on external DLLs: https://cristianadam.eu/20150927/total-commander-and-sftp/
- Connecting to SFTP doesn't use TC's FTP functionality under the "Net" menu. (That uses FTPS, which is different to SFTP. Confusing yes? 😵 )
- Instead, on the drop-list that has your drives listed, pick "Network Neighbourhood", then double-click "Secure FTP". Create a new "folder" with F7, give it a name, then a dialog will pop up for connection settings.

Thanks for the hints, I am still trying to make a connection with this method.
Right now I am stuck before the first handshake, I mean I get a "failed to connect to the given server" error.
My firewalls (both software and the one on the router) are OFF, so it should work. I am still investigating. I will try accessing other sftp servers.

You're not putting the sftp:// in front of the address? That's just there to indicate which protocol to use.

I got it working in TC using these settings (obviously use your own username/password)

Edit: I just changed the logon-generation page to make it a bit clearer. 😀

😵 Yep, this was the problem. I mean I connected to other sites in the meantime and the "sftp://" prefix had to be deleted as well. Thanks !

I went with number two, I created a little star to put next to moderators' names.

E.g. http://www.vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=541

It's pink because of my un-leet photoshop skills, and was my lame attempt to colour it the same as the buttons on the forum. 😜

Any idea when new users will be able to start uploading files? I'm collecting them like crazy at the moment but have nowhere to put them.

Maybe we can get a hosting system set up on the Vogonswiki server if there are issues preventing Vogonsdrivers from working properly?
