Codebase64: Bandwidth Limit Exceeded
Since yesterday i tried to access Codebase64. Only the following text is given:
"The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to the site owner reaching his/her bandwidth limit. Please try again later. "

Hmm, some people have been leeching this month it seems. I've increased the limits and appears the website is back up now.

how the fuck can you exceed bandwidth limits with a wiki page like that? *shrug* |

I'm assuming its all the C=Hacking and book PDFs store on the account. Whatever it is, we drilled through 8gb of bandwidth in May 2012. |

8GB? Crazy. Should mirror those files somewhere else so they don't knock off the wiki.

I don't run the website, just host it. ;)
But that certainly is the better way to handle it really. Bandwidth usage has been creeping up since late 2007, then it was ~2gb/month. |

Out of curiosity, how does 8GB/month even kill it? The servers I rent have 5TB traffic limit, and even when you do manage to cross that, the bandwith is limited to 10/10Mbit (instead of 100/100Mbit).

That usually is just a matter of the hosting service company and depends on their defaults.
Setting up your own root server wihtout any limits e.g. could still be affected by the "housing rules" which some providers apply. Thats completely different from company to company though. |

For an text-based info-wiki like this, I'd vote against big files being hosted there.
Even though there are some nice (and considerably large) source-zips, maybe they can be put and linked to ftp-sites instead...

The server that hosts codebase is now blocking traffic again, due to "Bandwidth Limit Exceeded".
@Moloch: Furthermore, I can't access the administration stuff (cPanel) since it suddenly says "login is invalid" although I am using the same as before. I was just going to see whether there are some logs available that would provide a hint about what sort of traffic that causes this bandwidth limit exceeding stuff. |
