Post subject: Can I use Apache as a FTP server
Archived from groups: alt>apache>configuration (more info?)
Hi,

I have to send very often files to my brother.
I installed Apache together wit PHP en MySQL because I'm trying to
understand how to work with this applications and therefore I need a
localhost.
But can I use Apache to enable my brother up- and download files fram my
computer with a FTP-client?
I've my own IP-adress and a ADSL-connection.

Is there a place where I can find information on this matter and is there
anyone who has experience?

Thnx,

Joop Stolk

You should use an FTP server. If you are using Windows try:
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/filezilla/" target="_blank">http://sourceforge.net/projects/filezilla/</a> Oh, It's free.

Why with an FTP client ? he could do it with a regular browser !

Tell your brother to connect to <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://your.ip.add.ress/folder." target="_blank">http://your.ip.add.ress/folder.</a> Copy the
files you want to send him in the "folder" directory.
Password protect your folder with .htaccess if you do not want everybody to
have access

See the docs on the apache website.
