Thanks JM mate anyway, but I'm very familiar with FTP - but my customers aren't! (I'm a website creator remember)

200743 2003-12-15 19:10:00 best to use is ftp :) but if you cant do that then bit torrent seems to be the flavour of the month the only true peer to peer program with any salt :) Budda (2736)
200744 2003-12-15 19:22:00 Kazaa Lite is still good, if you wan't to download it and can't find where send me an email. ilikelinux (1418)
200745 2003-12-15 19:35:00 Nobody has mentioned DC++ (my kids use it all the time)

FYI (basically)
emule is the no-spyware version of edonkey.

Kazaa lite is the no-spyware version of Kazaa.

200746 2003-12-15 19:39:00 I agree with Ugh1, you need to be able to receive UDP packets IIRC for the searching to work correctly, otherwise you will "receive limited results and download speeds".

Ive setup mine to listen for them on a very random port number.... nmap shows its something totally different!

FTP? What about FTP? FTP is good... easy to setup.... No spyware.. ;-)


Chill.

200747 2003-12-15 20:16:00 Create an "upload" webpage on your server, so clients can easily use a website based form to upload files to you. somebody (208)
200748 2003-12-15 21:58:00 Doh! Now why didn't I think of that! Great idea :)

Still not a perfect solution coz it'll be using http, which isn't as efficient as ftp or P2P - but I like it anyway!

200749 2003-12-15 22:25:00 I saw a website about a year back that used the Vitalize! Browser-Plugin, and he created a web-based FTP client.. Would be dead easy to mod it and change it so it Only goes to Greg.. ;-) Chilling_Silently (228)
200750 2003-12-15 22:29:00 Best file sharing is MS's default File and Printer Sharing over TCP/IP :P Kame (312)
