I have offered to host files for community members. My server that hosts the files is under a 24/7 contract in a data center. I mostly have unlimited storage space & unlimited bandwith usage thanks to my contract. I have the individuals ftp into a server in my house. I quickly look over the files to make sure they are what they say they are then upload them to the other server. Once the file is uploaded I contact the individual with the server address. This system works great for me because I have a small number of individuals that I host. I wouldnt mind hosting more but alot of people prefer to utilize communities that provide freebie hosting.
