What is FTP Server?
|
It is the program that allows you to copy files from remote computer
to and from the computer where FTP Server program is installed.
You can do it using any FTP Client
(the program that should be installed on the remote computer).
If you have the file manager program like
Total Commander
that has built-in FTP client, you can manage the files
like they are on the computer where you are working now.
