How to use P2P ftp in Total commander?

Hi, Folks

i'm a bit of a beginner at this ftp business so please excuse my stupidity!!!

i want to transfer files directly between 2 different computers in 2 different towns...............someone told me i could do this using Total Commander (used to be called WinCommander)...........

..........what i don't understand is how do i find the address of each individual computer?........where would i see this?

thanks for your patience!

Daz.

In Win98, go to Start > Run > and type in: winipcfg
In 2k/XP, open a dos box (command prompt) and type: ipconfig /all
The "IP" is the number you want.

In your FTP program, you need to specify that as the site you want to connect to.
Instead of FTPing to ftp://whateversite.com you ftp://62,###.###.185
The computer located at ftp://62,###.###.185 must have an FTP server setup to recieve the login from another computer.
