Filezilla should suit you pretty good :)

Code: Select all

http://filezilla-project.org/
Rather simple to set up I think.
Give it a try :D

I use FTP in an odd way.

Go to my documents -> then in the address bar type -> ftp.XXXXX.com.

Then the password and user name prompt will be ready. *thumb*

so yes, filezilla is the one to go for windows...there are a couple of others, but most are either outdated or commercial.

A FTP server or a server file exchange program?

My post is a client that connects to a server to exchange files. So he might be confused at the meaning. You guys mention Filezilla. that is the same thing as using My Documents in the hacked way I described above.

either will do the same thing right?

Actually, FileZilla offers both a server and a client, in different packages though.
And since he described it as "creating an ftp server", I just assumed that it really is a server that he is after, and not a client.

But yeah, I might be wrong of course :)
