    Sharing a specific folder


    I have a folder where i'm storing the files i'm working on, i also have a partner who is working on the same files.. who is in a different state than me. So I need a way for him to access the folder on my hard drive so that we are up-to-date and using the same files. What would be the best way for him to access these files.. VNC? some type of online application? remote desktop?


    thanks for any input

    You can also set up a live mesh account for this and give your partner access.
