Does anyone know of a program?

karsten · 04-29-2005, 04:42 PM

A standalone that is, that can be run on a computer, and through encryption or not, through a browser, upload software from one computer to the computer running the standalone? I know I didnt explain it well but I dont want to write my own programing code, I am not that good at it. (I am not looking for p2p software, or any software that requires installation on both machines)

thanks

that does NOT require installation on both machines sorry

Both computers already have O/S's installed? And What is each O/S? Does each machine have an ethernet connector?

karsten · 04-29-2005, 05:12 PM

well I want to do this over the internet, and I'm sorry... I do not know what you mean by o/s

karsten · 04-29-2005, 05:15 PM

perhaps you would like to know what I am to use this for...
I run my own winamp/shoutcast radio station for like four of my friends,
and I was wondering if there was a program where they could upload files without my consent onto my computer to be broadcasted???
thanks

note i currently use shoutcast, winamp, wwwinamp to control remotely between the friends...

thanks again

Operating systems. Such as Windows XP or 2000.

karsten · 04-29-2005, 05:17 PM

xp home edition (unfortunaltly not professional or server, that would be easier)

https://secure.isandt.com/wwwftp/ftp.cgi

That is a web based FTP client.

Give your friends a link to that, and give them your FTP username and password.

If you need to set up an FTP Server, you can use FileZilla Server. Make sure you get the server and not the client. It will be a bit complicated, but we can go through it step by step.

(note, if you don't like FileZilla, browse sourceforge. I'm sure there are hundreds, if not thousands, of FTP servers there.

well I have installed the FTP client, but it says to specify the address of the server, I want my computer to be the server with other people uploading to my computer, this can probally do this but I dont know how....
thanks

You need to set up an FTP server, like the one I linked to below, on your computer. Then your ip address becomes your server address.

You can setup users from within FileZilla's options, give them permissions, etc...

karsten · 04-30-2005, 10:00 AM

I know what you mean by setting up an FTP server, there are plenty of tutorials ou there that allow this FTP server creation, but they all use Windows XP professional, I have Windows XP Home Edition sadly. Is there a patch that I can obtain to create a FTP server... because if there isnt... I'm stopped after quite a few hours of work.
Thanks again

**DumberDrummer** · 04-30-2005, 11:43 AM

For the 3rd time, you can use FileZilla: http://sourceforge.net/projects/filezilla/

It works on XP Home Edition. I should know, I'm using it on XP Home.

Thanks for looking past my ignorance and responding, I will look into it thanks.
I will post later if I have any REAL problems.
thanks
