I can set that running as well as use one of my VBS scripts for deleting old files by aged parameter. I think the script is on the server already.

Just need to work on a viable option and I'll sort it out.

Here's what I've thought and done.

I've setup a script to delete .dem files from one folder once they are 10 days old.

I've setup an ftp account so that the dems can be retrieved from the server (write permissions are remove for the time being). You can only access one folder (no recursion). I'll pm you the details Mug.

I've also setup a page to list the current demos available for all to download if they need to.
http://www.festersplace.com/web/highlander-demos" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

NB: if the server shows too much activity on demo downloads I may make it restricted to reduce badnwidth loss!

Can you make it 14 days? Thats how long personal demo's have to be kept too, for ETF2L admins, should they request them.

Nice work bbloke much appreciated. Worth noting, When any of us are on playing bball or the like to turn the stv off so that space is not wasted. Is there a way to make it turn back on by default

The demo's are indeed showing up now on the main site, but clicking them does nothing for me...

Can we get about 2 or 3 new static passwords for the challenge? Would like to make sure we have no issues with people who are not supposed to be there.
