FTP is a dark corner I have yet to explore.I remember the very first time I used Hyper Terminal to upgrade me firmware...think I must've been wearing my clever-trousers that day because my mind goes totally blank when I attempt to recall the procedure.
So,clearly,I need educating otherwise I may compromise the security of my computer-and that's bad news for the Internet Community.
What I would like to be able to do is transfer files to my friend.I'm being perfectly honest-I haven't got a clue how to get it all set up.
Clearly,I need an FTP application.Since I am the one transporting the files to my friend,does that mean I need a file server,as opposed to client ?
What does my friend need?And how does she "check in" to download the files?
Yes,I have heard of Google,but by and large when I *try* researching a topic,I end up even more in the dark than when I began.Hope you don't mind me consulting you all.
Thank you in advance for any insights.
