HI,

 

How do I ftp to yahoo server thru explorere or any ftp utility in XP.

I looked at microsofts site and it makes no sense to me.

 

Help?

John,

 

FTPing on XP is the same as any other OS version.

You need your host name, user name, password, and port #(usually 21).

There are plenty of free FTP programs out there. I'ld suggest using filezilla. You can download it here: http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/

 

Just plug in the fields: host/usrnam/pswrd/port

 

You can just drag and drop the files from the left side of the screen(local machine) to the right(remote/host machine).

 

This will make sense once you have the program and can see the interface.

To get to ftp using XP you just type in

ftp://whtevertheurlistoyourftpspace where you would normally type in an http url

 

a log in window should pop up, enter your user name and password and you should be good to go

 

a note though, not all servers will work with XP as an ftp so if you have a problem you can grab any number of freebies off the web
