Hello,

I just found out about Red Kawa's file server tonight when I searched how to transfer files from my PC to my PS3 easily to show some videos to friends.

It's a great program :D, worked on the first try.
But I'm wondering if it's possible for other people to acess my PC files over the internet while I'm using the program? If I read the different posts correctly, it's only going to work over my LAN network, but I'd feel safer to use FS if someone could confirm this for me. :)


Thanks a bunch,
QC8472

The only thing i can think of is to just test it.
Find your 'external IP' and then put that into the address bar and just put the port number after the colon.
If you access the file browser then you might find your available online, but double check you can download items first.

I'd try this myself but im at work and my PC is at home... off :)
