Well, Mozy doesn't always complete when I manually tell it to backup my bookmarks, so I can't recommend it for large files. T

Buy space with a host (such as CrystalTech) and upload away. I do it all the time. T
Re: [H] Online FTP sites
OK, so go grab a copy of Filezilla and a webhosting account and upload it manually. Winterlight wrote: That is exactly what I don't want to do. I don't want to share, automate, or schedule anything.

You could find a web host that will give you SSH access, setup shared secrets between your PC and the webhost, and use Windows Scheduled Tasks to launch pscp (part of PuTTY) to move the files up to your host on whatever schedule you want..

Re: [H] Online FTP sites
I know a lot of people who get Dreamhost accounts and use them for online backup. $9.99/mo for 14gb plus you get your own domain, webspace, email, etc. Winterlight wrote: Anybody try XDrive? It is a online FTP drive, this has been done before, but never 5GB free and 50 GB for 100 a year. Plus it is offered by AOL, which means it won't go away any time soon. I have been uploading by Data backups to my Godaddy hosted site, about 3 zip files of 6 GB , every month. But last week they told me I had a File Repository and made me remove them... which sucks since I have been doing this for 7 years without any problems. Now I am looking for a online FTP account... anybody know anything about these?
