Jack,
It's takes a bit of setting up, but you can make a direct file transfer
from one computer to another over the internet by using the Filezilla
Client and Filezilla Server software that is available free on the
Filezilla website. It takes a bit to set it up, but once you do, it's a
snap sending and receiving very large files - even several gigabytes -
to and from others. What is required, though is for you to have at
minimum Filezilla Server installed on your machine, and the other party
to have Filezilla Client on theirs. Filezilla Client is FTP software.
You install Filezilla Server on your machine, then set up an account
for the person who wants the file. That is nothing more than a User ID
and Password. You set up a folder for that person and put the file to be
downloaded in it. That limits access to that folder only. You can also
allow only downloads - no uploads to your computer. You can also prevent
file deletions as well. Once done - then you send the account
information to the person who wants the file, along with your IP
Address. Using the Filezilla Client, the other party can then log on to
your computer and download the file(s). If you have (and the other
party) both have Filezilla Client and Server installed - you can send
files back and forth with ease.
Depending on the level of service you have, sending and receiving can be
fast of slow. I'm fortunate to have a higher end broadband connection so
things move pretty fast.
I had a friend in Australia with whom I wanted to share files, and this
was the solution to getting around the limits of e-mail for sending and
receiving files. I have also used this system with a number of other
V-gon Volks as well.
If you are unfamiliar with FTP and Personal Server software - this is
well worth learning how to use.
I will post this under another thread name so it can be found in the
archives more easily.
Hope this helps.
