    I am a PC user, my mother is a Mac user. I want her to be able to download a bunch of family pictures from me. I set up ServU to create a mini ftp site for her.

    She states that Fetch will not accept my IP address (I'm on broadband), but wants an actual ftp.hostname.com type of address. Is there a way around this?

    I could upload to a server and she could download, but it would be so much easier if she could just come and get the pictures. Yes, I'm lazy.

    Thanks!

    Fetch will accept an IP address. What IP address is she trying to connect to?

    Note that she won't be able to connect if your PC is behind a router, unless you set up a port mapping in the router and give your mother the IP address of the router.

    Thanks,
