Is there software that will let me browse a "shared" folder on another PC via the net - GoFuckYourself.com

Anyone know of software that can do that? It will help me manage the work of two guys very far away from me.

thanks,

Found this with a quick google search...

AOL Instant Messenger version 4.7 and ICQ 2001b (the most recent versions of those apps) allow you to designate a shared file folder on your system and specify who can see and download its contents. To set up file sharing in AIM, click the wrench icon to open AIM's Preferences dialog box, and select File Sharing in the Category list. Identify the folder you'd like to share and the Buddy group you want to share files with. To make files available to all users, or to establish additional access criteria for Buddies and non-Buddies, uncheck Allow only users in Buddy group. Friends who want to retrieve your files must have an AOL Instant Messenger account and enabling software. To access your files, they need only right-click your name in their Buddy Lists and then choose Get File.

To share files in ICQ 2001b, click the Services button, choose Shared Files, and then click Activate Service. Unlike AIM's file sharing feature, ICQ doesn't let you choose the folder you want to share--instead, you have to copy files to the program's default folder, \Program Files\ICQ\Shared Files. To control who can download the files, click the Main button, choose Security and Privacy Permissions, and then select Contact Info/Files under Permissions. The 'Shared Files' settings on the right side of the dialog box let you control who can see your files: all ICQ users, only those on your contact list, or no users at all. To download your files, friends will need an ICQ account and software. To download your shared files, they click the file icon next to your name in ICQ's contact list and choose View user's Shared Files directory.

It's called "FTP". Google it.

To answer what I THINK your question was, no, netbios shares aren't routable over ip.

lol.. this may seem like a dumb route, but i set up a simple webserver (apache/php/mysql/perl/etc..) on my xp machine so I could do that...
turn it on and off as needed. actually doubles as a nice test environment so i don't have to keep uploading shit to my actual server over and over..

Yo Marc - I have heard that http://www.idrive.com/ is a pretty decent service. Also mac users can setup a drive through their iDisk program. I just installed the new iDisk for windows applet - pretty cool.

tried this before:

you need a public ip to do this ( disable or alter settings on your router/firewall).
in your PC enable file & printer sharing in (LAN connection applet)

START > RUN > OPEN
\\your public ip here\shared folder name

* dont forget to pass protect the folder via folder properties

thats it
