FTP and Windows XP Professional
My company just acquired a small group of offices. The offices used to share files using an FTP program called NoFeel FTP. The "file-server" is a Windows Xp Professional system that was running NoFeel FTP. Since that program is now a mess, the remote offices cannot FTP files to / from the file server in the mail office. What do you use for an FTP service? The office no longer has access to that FTP program, and installing a new version from the web doesn't correct the issues.

hmmm could you be a little more precise? What exactly is "a mess"?
What are the clients using to access the ftp server?
Why is there no longer access to to nofeel?
Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."

I suspect the registry portion for the NoFeel ftp is messed up.
XPPRO supports IIS6.0 which contains an ftpserver

Filezilla does a great job, is easy to set up and free!
IIS for FTP=LAME.

himachi is also very simple to setup. Not ftp per say but you can transfer files easily. Like setting up a home network file sharing but much safer.

Thank you all.
I ended up installing FileZilla on the file server. I then created the user accounts and permissions. Instead of having the users use ftp:\\(IP Address), I created a DynDns.org entry for it. Now the users can access it by ftp:\\(name).dyndns.orgport #).
