All you need to do pick FTP server and install it on one of your machines. All of this ftp server are easy to setup. If you want to access to your ftp server anywere on the internet you need to open port 21 on your router. ****Be carefully open port on your router can expose you to virus.\n\n\nIIS-http://www.webwizguide.com/asp/tutorials/installing_iis_winXP_pro.asp\nApacheFTP-http://incubator.apache.org/ftpserver/\nhttp://filezilla.sourceforge.net/

SMB server won't allow that. You need additonal software for that.

For that you have to setup a webserver on your home computer with Java installed in it. The two most used webservers are Apache and IIS. Then you have to buy a domain from a Registrar or directly from the ICANN called mybooksite.com. Next you have to point the DNS of your computer to that of the domain. A wonderful tutorial on how this can be done on a Windows machine can be found here: http://www.ricocheting.com/server/

Open up a folder/window\nIn the address bar type...\n\nftp://< username> : <password> @ ftpurl\n\nYou should connect to the FTP server and be able to upload and download files.

I use FileZilla - it's free, OPEN SOURCE, and works very well.  They also have FTP SERVER software available.

Try 2 windows of IE with the 2 ftp addresses, and drag the files from one to the other\nAlso, if on the same server, you should be able to do it while logged on with their on-line copy facility.

You can download an ftp daemon (server program) such as bulletproof ftp. Then, you can use a service such as dyndns or no-ip to get an ip-independent domain name for your server.

What you want to do is make sure that you have an isp service with a constant or static IP address to host a server. These are the steps you need:\n\n1) Identify your IP address and find out if it's static\n2) setup your server and the folder with the pictures\n3) on your website type the html code or which ever code you use such that it links your pictures to the site, example: http://youripaddress/imagefolder/image.jpg\n\nBelow are some servers you can install on a windows based computer. If you use Linux you might have to install an extra module to use it as a server.

yes you can.\n\n1) each pc on your network you need to give a set ip address, as most routers give each computer an ip address when the computer starts up.\n\n2) in your router setup you would have to also look at port fowarding, this so outside world requests can get thorugh to a specif machine, you should have some already pre set but not operation, i have a linksys, i give an app name such as http, set the external port to 80, internal port to 80, it will ask for an internal ip address. this would be the ip of your web server in my case 10.0.0.3 and save changes.\n3) you would then need some sort of dns lookup service. if you join no-ip.com which is free, then go to download there software onto your web server. my site is shoey.no-ip.info (its not up as im upgrading my server) then this will keep no ip up to date with your connection.\n4) you would follow similar processes for setting up ftp etc\n\nthis is only a really rough quick, guide. if you e-mail me what router you got, id be able to give you something a bit more to your settings

How to set up a home FTP server\nREAD MORE: FTP, Feature, Home server, Top \n \nby Matt Haughey\n\nIf you’ve been following the the Lifehacker Home Server Series of articles, you know how to do things like reach your home computer from anywhere in the world thanks to dynamic DNS services. Gina wrote about how to set up a personal home web server, but in my experience the killer home server feature that hasn’t been covered to date is how to set up a personal FTP server at home. \n\nA home FTP server is useful to anyone who wants to save and retrieve files on their computer from anywhere. Ever forget a Word document on your home desktop that you really need at work? Ever download a PDF that explains how to fix something at work and you realize too late you left it at home that morning? If you have a personal FTP server, and you can reach your computer from any place on earth, your files will never be captive on your hard drive at home again.\n\nMy home FTP server has saved me on many occasions. Sometimes it’s when I’m on a business trip and need an extra file left at home, most often it’s when I’m in the office and didn’t remember to bring files I worked on at home. By far my best FTP story is from a few years ago, when my wife was giving a reading at a wedding. A couple hours before the ceremony, we realized we left the poem sitting in the tray of my printer at home. We sped to my nearby office, I FTP’d to my desktop, got the Word doc downloaded and printed it there, which we took to the wedding with time to spare. My home FTP server saved the day. \n\nThe main advantage of a home FTP server over a web server is that you can save files to the server, whereas with a web server, you can only get files. The disadvantage of a home FTP server is that you need an FTP client to connect to it, whereas web servers can be accessed using a plain old web browser. However, many modern web browsers support the FTP protocol. Instead of prefacing the URL with http://, use ftp://. That said, most web browsers make crappy FTP clients. You should use a more fully-featured FTP client to conect to your server like SmartFTP or WS_FTP wherever possible. \n\nLet’s get started. \n\nWhat you’ll need: \n\nA Windows PC \nAn always-on broadband (DSL or cable) internet connection \nStep 1: Download and install Serv-U FTP \n\nServ-U FTP is a nice windows FTP server app that has a simple to use interface. It’s been around for years — I’ve used it since 1997 and it works flawlessly. The newest version adds more security through SSL support and the best part of all is that the personal version which allows for two FTP logins is completely free. \n\nNow, don’t get confused because they have several levels of pricing and several editions, but you can download a single package from here that includes all versions. Once installed, you will have a “corporate edition” that after thirty days will become the “personal edition.” If you follow along this tutorial, you won’t be using any special features so you shouldn’t see anything change once the application reverts to the free version. And by all means, if you decide to use this on a machine at work, make your employer pay for a license, but as long as this is on your home computer, free personal use is fine. \n\nStep 2: Complete setup and create a user login \n\nAfter the initial setup is done, Serv-U should start the administrator and ask you to create a new user account. Start off by first putting in the domain name you used to setup your dynamic DNS. The names I’m using in these figures are for demonstration purposes.\n\ngo to this link for more: http://www.lifehacker.com/software/home-server/how-to-set-up-a-home-ftp-server-130806.php

You will need to do the following to host your website from your home:\n\n1. Get a Broadband connection with Public Static IP address. (Static IP given by ISP is not enough. It must be public IP)\n\n2. Setup a Web server. Either IIS on Windows or Apache on Linux.\n\n3. Host your website by setting up appropriate Virtual directory.\n\n4. Use a Service like Dynamic DNS to make sure your Domain name resolves to your Static IP (Provided by your ISP)\n\nAll the best. Let me know when its done so i can take a look as well!

Usually the web hosting service provider will give you access to your main control panel (e.g. Cpanel). Changing the FTP password and a lot more features are available from there. You may be able to log on to it from the host's website.

You can use explorer to do this job if you are using Windows 2K or XP.  The only disadvantage is that it is slower to other programs such as cuteftp.  \n\nAll you need to do is to open My Network Places.  \nClick on Add Network Place. .. next\nChoose "another network location ...."  ..next\nEnter the ftp server address starting with ftp://  ..next.\nEnter Log on details.\nand enter the name of the network place to be displayed.\n\nThese settings are only set once.  When you need to connect to the ftp server. go to My network place\nand double click on the icon of the server.  When prompted enter a password. \nTo upload files drop and drag.\nTo delete select and press delete.
