The only way is to set up a website and have everyone FTP their files to it.\n\nWithout routers or VPN, you're not going to do it any other way.

The 'best' is speculative and often winds down to being 'user preference'. My favorites for search are:\n\nGoogle, Yahoo, and MSN\n\nMy favorite download site is downloads.com\n\nMy favorite FTP site is smartftp.com, which is the main website for my favorite, and what I consider the 'best' FTP client, Smart FTP.

make sure that the file is located in the root directory of your tftp server. also verify the filename. and finally, insure that your firewall is not blocking it.

FTP: The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) sends data over a reliable connection. This protocol can be used to send, delete, and move files to and from an FTP server and client.\n\nSMTP: The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is the messaging or e-mail transfer protocol. This protocol allows mail to be transferred on TCP/IP networks, including the Internet.\n\nDNS: The Domain Name System service provides TCP/IP host name to IP address resolution. \n\nHTTP: The World Wide Web uses the Hypertext Transfer Protocol.  This protocol allows you to connect your computer to other computers on the Internet.

FTP stands for file transfer protocol. It is one of the oldest ways of transfering files on a computer. \n\nFTP is not used much any more except by web hosting companies. The only reason hosting companies still use FTP is that Microsoft still insists on not including SSH/SCP with Windows and most Windows users don't know about SSH/SCP. \n\nThe reasons why nobody uses FTP if they can help it are. First it transfers your user name and password in the clear. That means anybody who is between you and the FTP user and or the site you are connecting to with FTP can get your user name and password just by listening.  FTP has no real error correction and it has no compression. So it is slower and far less reliable. \n\nUsing SCP for file transfers is as easy as using FTP. SCP however uses encryption for user names and passwords. SCP has better error correction and has compression. So it is more reliable, more secure and faster than FTP. \n\nAll you need to run FTP or host SCP file transfers is a server and to open the appropriate port in your firewall. \nFor SSH/SCP it is 22. For FTP it is 20 and 21. You want to support both active and passive FTP. \n\nThe difference between Active and Passive FTP is which end opens the second connection. In all FTP connections first the client contacts the server and tells them that they want to connect by FTP. Next in Active FTP the server will open a second port back to the client for the actual file transfer while Passive FTP the client is who opens this port to put it in a simplified way. I've included a link with a good deffinition on the difference between active and passive FTP. \n\nI strongly recomend using SSH/SCP rather than FTP. I've included links for SSH/SCP rather than FTP. I've also included a link to WinSCP which is an excellent client for both FTP and SCP transfers. \n\nIf you use Linux, FreeBSD, Unix or a Mac(and installed the sys utils) you already have an FTP server installed on your machine. You only need to configure your firewall. With the Mac you'll have to download SSH I believe. Other than that the other OS's come with SSH already installed.

There's numbers of ftp software can be use. My best selection would be Ws_FTP... There's some websites which also offers upload forms, to help those without ftp knowledge. For example, Geocities.

These are called protocols.  They tell your browser what kind of a file it will be looking for.  For example, HTTP stands fo Hyper Text Transfer Protocol.  Hyper Text is the language that web sites are written in, http tells the browser you are going to be viewing a web page.  FTP; File Transfer Protocol is for downloads (transfer a file).  local file is a file that is located on your computer, localy.\n\nHope this helps you a little.\nAlfred

TFTP is a very simple File Transport Protocol.  there for many of the features found in FTP are not present in TFTP, such as security, authentication, cannot list directories.\n\nFTP is a full featured File Transport Protocol, therefore it has many robust fetuses making file transfers more secure and reliable.  \n\nTFTP is usually used for transferring data to devices such as Cisco routers.  FTP is used to download and transfer files on the Internet.\n\n***TFTP does not have anything to do with acting like a server.  TFTP is simply a type of protocol used to transport data between one device and another.  Both TFTP and FTP can be set up as a server to trasfer files to and from.

A client ftp would be the actual software you use to upload or download to the ftp server. The ftp server would actually be the host of the files that your are downloading, sort of like storage. Yes two clients can exchange files via ftp. This is similiar to the file tranfer function in yahoo messenger. I cant confirm if that uses ftp though more than likely its just a direct connection.
