On a Mac using OSX, it is very easy to set up an FTP service on the computer you are using, however you have to have a static IP on your network for those outside to be able to ping your server. In my case I have both a Mac OSX FTP server with static IP and a few hosted ftp sites where I have login/password access, and of course, they have setup the static IP addresses & domain names. Further, if you have a static IP but no domain name, that address is used in place of the 'domainName.com' as in ftp://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/drop/ As you contemplate the app building, do research the built-in library of FTP commands and features. Also search for example Rev stacks that have been built and readily available. Hope this helps.
