If you have an old Dropbox account, you can enable public folder. If your account is new, you have to buy Pro ($9.99/mo). And Dropbox doesnt't work as a fastdl server anymore without workaround (because you can't share folders with direct linking. Only individual files).
I'm currently using it with a workaround. I have Xampp running on my dedicated server computer (i run sourcebans with Xampp). I also "host" fastdl server on it. I have there dummy files with correct names. And then i use .htaccess file to redirect each file to a file on my public dropbox folder. Redirecting goes like this (same goes with nav and txt files as well as all other files):
redirect 302 "/gamename/maps/mapname.bsp.bz2" "http://dropbox_url_here/gamename/maps/mapname.bsp.bz2"
This method doesn't stress your connection as people are redirected to Dropbox.
