I have some DOS programs that I want to upload to the internet.  The problem is that I don't have my own web page.  If I could upload one of them to an ftp server I'd be happy.  The one I want to upload now is in its alpha stages and published for testing and developing purposes.  I'd appeciate a good DOS ftp or download site.  Thank you fo listening.

There are a bazillion free webhosts. Pick one and make a web page.

There are or were a number free webhosts and free filesharing sites.

E.g., here are two:

To share a file:
http://www.filedropper.com/

For free web hosting:
http://www.110mb.com/


As for uploading to an ftp site, I think most anonymous ftp sites "died"
with the browser based internet.  Even if you find one, it'll likely just be
a mirror and not allow uploading of new content.  I haven't seen a new DOS
file added to any of the old DOS sites (Simtel, Garbo, etc) in years, but
maybe they still allow it.  I think the era of people being able to upload
to
collections of related files is mostly over.  Nowadays, you have websites
that just go around and archive stuff from existing websites, mostly
commercial software, e.g., download.com, fileplanet.com, majorgeeks.com,
tucows.com, etc.

There might still be a few Garbo mirrors though.  This seems to be one:

The machine is gone, but there's nothing stopping you from hosting it somewhere else...  Do you lack a host?  (Or time?  Or motivation?)

No new anonymous DOS ftp sites?  That's bad.  :(  For now, I just want to distribute an alpha of a program for testing/feedback/code donation purposes.  It doesn't need a host site: just a site for publishing.

There must be more dyslexic programmer's out there than I realized.  ;-)  It
seems I get that alot on Usenet.  It used to irk me, but no more.  So, don't
worry about it.  But, I still like to make people aware of it when they do
it.  :-)
