Pushing and Pulling is done by clients. Servers respond to client requests.To do what you ask, you need to install a FTP server on your computer.If you have XP Pro, you can install "Internet Information Services": Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components (left column) -> then check Internet Information Services then "Next"."How to: Create and Configure FTP Web Site Projects in IIS 6.0" < http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6ws081sa.aspx >alternatively, or if you have XP Home, you can install any of several freeware FTP servers on your machine -- among themFilezilla .Also keep in mind that if the computer is in a home network situation (i.e. behind a NAT router) and you are receiving data from outside your local network that Port Forwarding will also need to be configured on the router.HTH, JW
