Rafael, Glad to know it worked out for you. I have used it for some 18 months now and never had a problem. Good software and free!

The reason being that it was a little difficult to install the Filezilla server at first, because I have a Linksys router at home, with my kids', wife's and my computers all hooked to it. But a quick study of the help solved my problem. Here's what I did: I have a free fixed IP, from NO-IP.ORG You install the client in any machine (I did that in both Vista and XP machines) Client setup *********** Use the rapid connection at the top and enter the following: Server: your no-ip name (in my case copquin.no-ip.org) User: whatever user you set up in the Filezilla server pswd: same as above port: 14147 Server setup (this is more complicated) *********** find out what your computer IP is open your router and enable ports 21 (default for ftp) and the range 5000-5100 and direct them to your computer ip Start the Filezilla server Under general settings - listen on port, just put 14147 Passive mode settings: use the following IP: the name of your no-ip.org connection use custom port range: 5000-5100 miscellaneous: check the last two options Then you set up your users and assign specific directories and permissions. I have one for clients, one for colleagues, one for friends and a general one for myself, with access to all those directories. It is fast and works all the time. That's all there is to it. You can use FireFTP from FireFox instead of the FileZilla client. A special thanks to Dave Crozier for the tip.
