More specifically, ftp://username:password@IP address (you can also do a domain name lookup on your IP address in case you have an easy to remember name... rather than 124AWQ.noQwapt1.lq15.novascotia826.nowhere.com). It makes your entire ~/username/ directory available (so everything in there, including Documents and Desktop) but only if you give out your username and your password. What I've done is create a separate "guest" login with a password that I can give out to friends if they need to transfer files to and from my computer. Damn, I really need to get to work.
