Site List Grab

We are currently assembling a list of Posterous sites that need grabbing. Development is seat-of-the-pants-y right now, and the following instructions will get your IP banned fairly quickly. Join us in #preposterus on efnet for state-of-the-art chitchat.

Instructions

Download the latest script: git

Claim a number range in the table below

Run 100 smegs concurrently. The following example will run the 1-2 million range:

   for chunk in $(seq 100 199); do ./smeg $chunk & done

Running this with the python variant at a high scale WILL cause database lock collisions.

To see hostnames as they're found:

    tail -q -n 0 -f *.hostnames

No output means you're IP banned.
