[cod] 1.4 Linux server approved!

Thanks just wanted to make sure you were only using one port so I could add
it to the firewall.

Maybe a donation drive is in order.

What's the cost of Amazon's cloud server anyway.

Treefort.icculus.org does; it's on a private server at dreamhost...if we 
just use their default apache, we can choke the machine with a popular 
download: even with good bandwidth, a gigabyte tarball takes a long time 
to trasnfer, and then there's always some jerk with a "download 
accelerator" that opens 64 connections for one download for days at a time.

To work around this, we redirect to a daemon that takes 150 kilobytes 
per connection, and blocks download accelerator wankers.

But, yeah, obviously port 80 is already taken on the server. I don't 
think this is ideal. Ideal would be someone writing a check on my behalf 
to Amazon Cloudfront.  :)

In the meantime, someone will certainly post a better mirror for 
anything I publish within a few minutes of my doing so.
