I am just messing around with G6 to make my own FTP server. I was told that I have to have a static IP to be able to use a browser to peruse the stuff on my hard drive. Is that correct? I've just messed around with this program tonight (and yes it does work). My friend is currently connected to it via CuteFTP but I would think it's much mroe logical and practical for my friends just to be able to connect to my server via their browser instead of downloading some other stupid program to connect.

Just curious. Also, if anybody has any tips or good sites, let me know 'em :) I found out everything I know so far from http://www.netknowledgebase.com

[edit]
Ok, the guy I talked to obviously didn't know anything of what he was talking about. I do now have it so that you can search my hdd through the windows browser. My question is now this (to anybody that has ever used G6) How do you make it so that you can share more than one drive (the root drive)? I have C:\ shared, but I wanted "D:\ ; E:\ ; and F:\" shared also. TIA.
