Hi, I work with some friends using Windows based environments doing music. We need to do studio to studio data file transfers. In a prior life I had an IT guy that managed an off-site ftp server and he was nice enough to give me a couple of accounts, but now I need to do this myself, and the only machine I have to do it on is my main studio Gentoo box.
I am somewhat concerned about potential security issues using ftp, but since everyone is on Windows I also don't want to require them to use special tools just to be able to send me things. Are there any good options other than ftp that will work with both Linux and Windows? I am also concerned that my home studio firewall cannot limit ftp access by incoming IP, and will forward all ftp requests to this machine, so I need a solution that is pretty bullet proof, but hopefully is also easy enough for me to setup and run. (I be a IT guy not...) Can someone point me toward a few potential solutions that would be secure and also easy for a beginner type to setup and maintain?
