BattleRecorder

[Taz18]

Hi, we have been trying to setup BattleRecorder on the FHT servers so that the files are uploaded to our FTP for nearly a month now without success. I was wondering if any of you could help us out?!

and whats your question ?

first of all explain, HOW do you do this.
then, what does the logfiles (of your system) tell?

How do we set the servers up so they upload the BattleRecorder files to our FTP server? Right now we have no one who knows what they are doing with regards to this. We own our game server and have FTP access to it, I believe the head admin also has Remote Desktop access as well, and we are running 4 FH2 servers off of it (and 2-3 FH1 servers). We have an FTP server which we upload our maps and such to and that is where we would like the servers to send their BattleRecorder files. The problem is none of us have any idea how to set them up to do that

well, there are some ways to do this:
way one:
you copy your BR-Files automaticly from the fh2-server to a ftp (BR settings for ftp-server) and than copy it to an http server. so you MUST have seperate hardware servers in order to get no bottleneck. the botleneck is the bandwith because if you have a gameserver, this one will mostly spend all bandwith. and if you than will put the BR-Files on this server and serve this files by a http-server, where people can download them, you WILL GET lags on your Gameserver.
so you need as min 2 servers one for gameserver and one for sharing this files.

btw, is this a linux server ? or a windowsserver ?

Its two severs, the gameserver is Windows.

so create a useraccount for ftp. these seetings (username and pw and e.g. path) you write down in BR-Settings.
than you link or copy all files from ftp-server to http-server. do this as a cronjob.
than on http-server for this one directory who is serving the BR-Files make a htaccess-file and override some settings: indexing the files (maybe "fancy") and then you will have access to the BR-files by http for all users.
