I am running Win2000 and NOT the Win2000 Server and want other people to get file from my PC using ftp. Apparently I cannot do that because I don't have ftp server running on my PC. Please let me know where I can download ftp server for Win2000

Thanks

It is included in all versions of Windows 2000: Pro, Server, Adv Server, DC Server
It does not need to be downloaded

To install the "FTP server" software
Click [Start
Setting
Control Pane
Add/Remove Program
Add/Remove Windows Component
Internet Information Service
Select Common Files, Documentation, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Server, and Internet Information Services Snap-I
Click [OK
Click [Next
Type a folder path. The default is "C:\Inetpub\Ftproot
Insert the Windows 2000 C
Click [OK
Click [Finish

Internet Information Server ( IIS 5.0 ) is built into every copy of Windows
2000 and includes ftp service, only that it´s not installed by default. You
may go to Add Remove Programs/Windows Components add IIS and make sure
within the options that ftp service is installed. Only one warning, the IIS
on Windows 2000 Pro only allows 10 concurrent connections.

Hope this helps,
