I have got a load of files i want to transfer from one laptop to another.
Theres too much data for infra-red transfer or laplink (parallel) so i thought i could connect the 2 together with an ethernet crossover cable.
If i set the IP addresses so they see each other (192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2, netmask 255.255.255.0) then what do i need to do within Windows so that i can use an FTP package to get from one to the other ?? I have shared the folder i want to get files from.
