Well I have been getting lots of suggestions on my FTP situation. To
refresh, a coworker behind a firewall is having trouble uploading, actually
he can't. He is using a Mac and Fetch and I am using an IBM with War FTPD
serving it up. He has his own account and upload/download capabilities in
the folder he is trying to use. He is able to download ok, but it gives him
an error when he tries to upload. So far, the best and easiest solution for
him looks like he needs to setup a FTP server on his computer so that to get
files we both download instead of somebody uploading. Thanks so far, if any
other ideas come up, let me know!
