Free ftp server software
Filezilla should do the trick for a freestanding and free FTP server. I've used it a lot as an FTP client, and it is very good. Runs on Windows 95 and up.
Well, the disbuttembly of the 8100 revealed at least one interesting thing... the connector to the ALPS touchpad was loose, and that explains why it didn't work no matter which driver...
Unless I misunderstand how the world operates, there are two choices for pbuttwordable HTML server operation. I ***think*** one can FTP into a Filezilla server from a browser using ftp:--etc . And Filezilla will ask for a pbuttword. I have not tried it myself. If this does not work, then the only other option may be full-blown Apache.
To keep things simple on your end, you can mandate that the client user(s) of your FTP service must use Filezilla as a client to communicate with your Filezilla server. That way, if FTPee-ing to a Filezilla server from a browser client does not work, you have a viable solution with minimal work on your part. And a Filezilla client is remarkably easy to use on a repebreastive basis once it is set up with the FTP server name, user name, and user pbuttword. The latter are also easy, but they need to be done only once... Ben Myers
