CENTRALISED DOWNLOAD SYSTEM (CDS)

Scope of project:
Centralised Download System(CDS) takes download request from clients and downloads the requested data from internet when bandwidth is utilized minimum by other services, for eg: During night time. After downloading, it stores the information on the local server and sends the local link to the user who had requested it.

Project Description:
Now consider a organization or firm which has many users using Internet.The firm has a limited bandwidth provided by the ISP. Many users access internet and download files, this causes high usage of bandwidth thereby causing the net speed to reduce. If heavy download is been done by users, then simple web application as accessing internet via web browser gets very slow. This therefore causes inconvenience to many users of the firm.

In such situation having a good download system that controls the download by users will be at advantage. This is the objective of our system to provide a Centralized Download System (CDS). The Centralized Download System takes request for downloads from the clients and downloads the requested data from internet when bandwidth is utilized minimum by other services. For eg: during night time. This will help in better utilization of bandwidth. Using CDS the heavy downloads could be done at evening. Now once downloading is over the CDS stores the information on the local server and sends the local link to the user who had requested it. The CDS maintains session so as to continue download from the point of break in case of loss of connection.

If the possible we will add the feature to check and see whether the file to be downloaded, already exist on the server. If yes, then it will be downloaded from server otherwise the request will be sent to the server.

Platform:
-->Linux (OS)
-->PHP (Client side and Server side)
-->MySQL (DBMS)

Currently i plan to use LDAP logins as users. Any ideas on the implementation of the above project will be appreciated.

Uninstalling problem with Vmware

Vmware is good software to use though it has some limitations mainly as it not an OSS. Secondly there is this uninstallation problem, say you did not install properly or you wish to uninstall it. Here uninstalling vmware compared to other software on Ubuntu is pain especially if you dont know the specific procedure.I wanted to reinstall vmware, that's when i came across this problem. I had given up the hope, when i read on forums that others too have faced this problems. The usual method of uninstalling any software is $ sudo apt-get remove [package-name] For uninstalling vmware-server the following steps need to be followed $ sudo rm -r /etc/vmware $ sudo apt-get remove --purge vmware-server This should solve the problem usually, if it doesn't then you need to specify your problem on one of the forums.
