Loggin into your pc(network) Via FTP by banky on 10-23-2005 at 06:37 AM

Hey

I know this sounds silly but..

Me and someone were trying to log into our own pcs via ftp Is it possible to even do this? And if so, how? Lol,

What I meant is like, in ftp if i typed my IP or my Network IP if i could login and see my files via ftp?? is that possible.

Thanks

Edit:// Or of any other comps on my network.. That are in my house and connected to my network.

no, you would need to setup an ftp server.

Ok.. Doing this would that make my Computer accessable say from others computer via a FTP Client?

Or you can use Hamachi (www.hamachi.cc)... It's some kind of VPN-alike tool.. It really rocks.. (btw also cool to play LAN-only games with)
