Binaries: where to host them?
To mention an option specifically suited for PCAP dump files, Cloudshark seems to be a sensible choice. It has been around for some time now (started in 2010), is constantly extending the services, do …

What are the reasons a question can/should get an upvote or downvote on Serverfault?
Is this site just for the "elite" and N00bs can just go their own way.

What to do with an accepted answer which is plainly wrong?
