Friends...I need some help
-
Having done a search both here and google I have found a ton of information about using HttpPostedFile. I have a situation where users will be uploading drawing files. Most of the time these files will not be very large, there are however those few people that continue to use Solidworks and create files that are 100Mb and up. Now I would just increase the max Http Request length but considering that I could have several people trying to upload huge files at the same time...this could get me in trouble. I am not sure what to do...I am not able to use any 3rd party plugins or activeX controls... Any ideas would be great.... Thanks, Will

Hello AFAIK the best practice in transfering a file over a network is making it in chunks. This would give you two advantages: 1- Minimize data loss, and improve recovery. 2- Allows the user to resume uploading/downloading files later if there is a connection failure. I wouldn't like it if I lose my 99Mb upload for a 2 secoinds power failure.;P
