O.P. Loggin into your pc(network) Via FTP
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.

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)
