I just set up an ftp server, but am not sure if it works prperly . its is called GuildFTP and i think its good. what i want to do is be able to download from a webbrowser with it. is this possible? try doing this: mr-x.is-a-geek.net or 70.69.176.249 to log in to my server. i need help. thank you.

Your server is working but nobody can log on unless you give them a password or set it up for anonymous log-ins. If you want to download you can do it through Internet Explorer or you can use a dedicated FTP Client. With Internet Explorer you just use: ftp://ftp.mr-x.is-a-geek.net/ or ftp://70.69.176.249/ Stuart

i selected allow login on the anonymous acount. maybe that was unchecked. is there anyway i can check? will this work with a different computer on my LAN? can i 'dial in' the ftp server? and is it the type that asks for the log in, or just one that gives the folders and files. all i really want is one upload/download account for the internet users (so they can give me files too) and then i want the admin account so i can browse my hdd and get anything i want. also, i dont think that there needs to be a ftp.mr-x.is-a-geek.net/ (the ftp. part) because i have selected enable wildcard which lets you put www in front of it. what matters is the ftp:// part right? it will be on all night so you can fool around with it, upload some files of .txt's to me on what to do properly. thanks
