I was just wondering, with the basic product and software this http://lifehacker.com/software/featu...ver-124212.php, would build, would I be able to access and download/upload files with a mac? Or is this just for PC? I couldn't find to much on it.


-I didn't really know where to post this one, but I thought hardware would be most suited...


If anyone can help, thanks a lot.

-[1] Sorry Mac folks, but OS X comes with a web server all set up, so this tutorial's not for you. [back

Web and FTP if you want it. And you can also enable a VPN server using the free iVPN.

I'm looking mainly at file sharing through a URL, would that work?

You can run your own file server, but it's probably cheaper and certainly easier to buy web space if you're planning on making your files accessible to the Internet.
