Hi all,

I have been trying to sell a computer for a while now, but it isn't working out. So, instead of just letting it collect dust, I want to turn it into a file server; dedicated if possible. Does anyone know of an accessible server interface and client I could use? I found File Zilla, which seems to have an accessible server, but not sure about the client, because my computer keeps detecting it as a virus. So, I can't try it, because of course the Anti-virsu program has an inaccessible dialogue. Was able to try the server part though, and really do like it. I'll try it on another ocmputer tomorrow. I want this to be a dedicated server, meaning I don't have to mess with it. I want it in a closet, without a keyboard, mouse, or monitor, ju8st it connected to the internet. PLease advise on what the best solution is.

Thanks,

I know this is possible.

Nathan.
