It's a good thought, I checked out SAMBA and it seems to do what I'd need. My problem with Linux is that it's still an engineer's OS - not a user's. I am an engineer and an experienced Windows user who set up his own FTP server, web site, and multi-point network. But, I'm hoping I don't need to get into a project as complex as SAMBA seems to be. I'd need to re-format (or at least partition) the PC I use as an FTP server (it's also our household server used for backups and whatever else). Then I'd need to load Linux, load SAMBA, get it all set up, yuck. I think I'm being a bit greedy - I'm hoping for a simpler solution than that.
