Dexter the FTP Indexer

current version: 0.96 [BETA]

Index your WAREZ and MP3 FTP Sites today. Keep your lists verified!

Overview

Dexter is an FTP sitelist manager & verifier. It takes a list of FTP sites and spawns a collection of threads which go out and index all the files and directories on those FTP servers.  Process all the FTP sites you want in seconds. You can even point Dexter to a webpage that has a list of FTP links, and it will perform URL sucking and import all the sites from that page. When the processing is complete, the indexes are written to an HTML file which can be viewed, edited, or posted to your website.

You can configure the depth of the directory recursion as well as the maximum simultaneous threads, and PASV mode is supported.

Administrators: check for hidden directories created by rogue users, find anonymous user security holes, visually evaluate your wasted hard disk space.

Webmasters: post HTML "sitemaps" of your downloadable files.

Trust me, just download it!

Dexter!

Release History

  • [01.02.98] 0.96 : Enabled IMPORT feature.   You can now "suck" FTP links from website URLs.
  • [10.30.98] 0.95 : Completely new GUI, more stable, faster...
  • [08.08.98] 0.93 : Small bug fixes, everybody will be glad to know that the link feature now has the correct full path, so clicking on a file in the HTML output will now work.
  • [05.15.98] 0.92 : Added IMPORT feature: point to an HTML file on disk or any remote file (ftp://, http://, gopher://...).  This is also called URL sucking.  Point this to your favorite "verified listz"!
  • [05.12.98] 0.91 : You NEED to delete Dexter.Settings file if you currently use .90.   Added searching for filename strings (*.zip, *.mp3, *.gif).  Added option to have files show up as links.  Added verbose output option.  Added starting directory, choose where the initial recursion starts.  More little bug fixes.
  • [05.09.98] 0.90 : keeping same version, small fixes.  Cancel button now works.   If there is a FILE_ID.DIZ or *.NFO file it will be read into the index.  Some deadlock problems fixed.
