Come on, let's be fair: Many people run a windows-based FTP server with great success, and they did not even have to do anything to set it up. That's because the superior technology of Windows enables helpful persons from all around the world to remotely install an FTP server on your machine. We have to admit that Linux just does not support such internet-based collaborative features to the same extent. -- Regards, Florian
