Hi Rochelle,

There is a good shareware internet-serving application for the mac called
NetPresenz (it used to be called ftpd). I've used it for a while and have
had no problems serving local users, or internet people (I have had
problems with the disc I was using to serve the data from, so my server's
down for a while).

You give people access privileges using the mac's "Users and Groups"
control panel in the same way as you do for a local network. You can get
NetPresenz from:

* <ftp://mirrors.aol.com/pub/peterlewis/>
* <ftp://ftp.share.com/pub/peterlewis/>
* <ftp://ftp.amug.org/pub/peterlewis/>
* <ftp://redback.cs.uwa.edu.au/Others/PeterLewis/>
* <ftp://ftp.nig.ac.jp/pub/mac/PeterLewis/>
* <ftp://nic.switch.ch/software/mac/peterlewis/>

I can't comment on server software for the PC I'm afraid, but I'm sure that
others will.

Fetch is a useful client program for transferring files to and from an ftp
server using the mac.

Hope this helps

Ray
