Fast setup of broadband based FTP server

Many users now have broadband access to the Internet. The bandwidth provided by the monthly broadband is enough to make your computer a server on the Internet. Let me take an example of an FTP server that is easy to build on personal computers.

To use broadband to set up your own Web server, the first thing to consider is how to let users find your computer through the Internet. If you have a fixed IP, the problem is much simpler, but in fact, the vast majority of broadband users of IP, Internet service providers are automatically allocated a dynamic IP. Friends can not find your computer through a fixed IP, you can not each time in the computer after the IP change manually notify your friends, this problem to solve, I have a free dynamic domain name analysis software "Peanut shell client" to everyone elaborated. After the address problem is resolved, the server software will be installed next. In the installation of FTP server, Serv-u is to use more tools, but it is a only 30 days of the use of shareware, 30 days later, most of the features will not be used, so here I take the Windows XP Professional from the IIS to introduce to you.

First, the Peanut Shell client settings

Peanut Shell (peanuthull), is a network of Technology Co., Ltd. a powerful, easy to use dynamic Domain name Resolution service software, you can download and use its latest version of its website (http://www.oray.net/).

Peanut shell after the client is installed, it will start with the system. Under the default settings, it will start the foreground control and background service, and in the system notification area as a small box, when the network connectivity and log on to the Peanut shell server, it will be color, we are not connected to the Peanut shell server, so it is gray.

To connect to the Peanut Shell server, we must first apply for a domain passport (account).

Log in to http://www.oray.net/, left click on "I want to register the domain Passport", or directly on the Peanut shell client "status" tab on the "Application of Domain Passport", access to the Domain Passport Application page, where the user agreement signed, fill in the basic information of the passport, set the password hint question , you will get a domain passport.
