I know the Mac side well, enabling FTP there is no problem... Its
the Linux side I'm shaky on.
on linux you could just use a web browser and point it at your mac
using a url like ftp://
ip_address_for_your_mac_from_sharing_preference
You could also enable the Web Server for your Mac, and just drop
the files into your Site folder. I personally believe this is more
secure than enabling FTP (plain-text passwords???), especially if
you are running on a wireless network. Plus the Web Server allows
only read only access within the Site folder only... FTP could
expose your entire hard drive.
I only use ftp on my internal closed network anyways so if anyones
hacking passwords it's me hacking my own :)
