i have an account with 1and1. how do i set up an ftp server where my friends can upload stuff to? say i create a folder called Upload and create an username and pwd....well...how do i do something like that so the usename and pwd to the "Upload" ftp server is different than the main username and pwd...
 
You mean on your 1&1 account or on your own computer? On your 1&1 account, I don't know what your capabilities are, but you can probably make a subaccount and create a custom username/password for that.
For your computer, get a program called bulletproof ftp server, or serv-u, or radienFTP. Setup is extremely easy, just read the help file. I had my bulletproof ftp setup in 2 minutes. Make sure you have port 21 opened if you're behind a firewall.
 
ok thanks guys. i will give the 1and1 sub-account a try. if that doesnt work...then use that bulletproof ftp server program....
