Have you also tried Filezilla-server? It seems to work really well and makes your computer a server. Other than that good tutorial.

Would be nice if there was a tutorial for Filezilla server

You Can get it here : How To Setup FTP Server on Windows

Thanks septprince,

I did a google search after i wrote that and found few websites with the FTP tutorial.

I was able to set up FTP for my HDD of my PC but didn't know how to set it up for my Network Attached Storage Hard Drives.

Old thread I know but I was curious if utorrent can be set up to download to the new FTP site?

yes would be nice

Please don't put a Serv-U 4.1.03 server on the Internet. That software is nearly ten years old and contains several security flaws that have since been uncovered. (I should know - I work for RhinoSoft, the author of Serv-U.)

These days Serv-U FTP Server (v.11+) is used primarily by businesses to securely exchange files with partners, to provide employees and contractors remote access to their files or, As Orbital Shark noted, to host web sites. Access to the server is made via web browsers, via mobile devices or via traditional FTP, SFTP or FTPS and user interfaces have progressed to the point where end users almost never need to install any client software on their desktops to work with their data.

If you're just curious what a file transfer server can do, please take a look at a modern version of Serv-U - it even includes wizards to set up the things you need to step through manually here - and skip this tutorial.
