Luddite networking

Friday, November 30th, 2007

The networking in Vista is just a little bit too complex these days.  I remember when Windows for Workgroups came out, and we could all share files across a LAN easily…

Well I just can’t work it out in Vista any more, or XP for that matter.  Just too many firewall/UAC/security things going on.

So my quick and dirty solution?

The cuddly, fluffy and open source Filezilla server.  (*sigh*)

Still, good to see 1970s protocols still work as well as they ever did  :-)
