Gouki Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 (edited) Well, you already gived a solution. Using your computer as an FTP Server.You can try Filezilla for that:http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/Free, clean and it does JUST what it says it does.An alternative would be buying Webhost.You could upload everything you have to the server, and then just access and download the stuff you need, when you need it.This would not require you to have your computer on 24/7.However, you do have to pay for a Webhosting!

RogueSpear Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 You could set up your computer to accept a Remote Desktop connection. You would need to either have the computer in the DMZ or use port forwarding on your router to forward the RDP ports. Of course if you have a direct connection to the internet you wouldn't need to do that anyway.Another possibility would be to use GMail Drive. The big limitation there is that you are limited in that each file can be no bigger than 10MB.Whatever you decide to do, make sure you test it out thoroughly before you leave.
nitroshift Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) set up your pc as a ftp server! check www.dyndns.com/about for a domain name and google for ftp server and client software... Edited February 2, 2006 by nitroshift
