[QUOTE="Lbatson21, post: 1321358, member: 169331"] I'm not sure exactly how it works with FTP in Leopard but usually with most servers you have to set up designated users with specific passwords and allow certain types of access (read only, read/write etc) Which I'm guessing is similar in Leopard (never used it). But someone would need to know your current ip address and/or your dyndns address as well as the user name and password so usually not an issue. You can also add in an extra layer of security by making sure when he does connect its using a secure shell or basically whatever FTP client he uses will connect using SFTP or FTPs which will encrypt the files on transfer. Also would want to make sure that is possible to have those connects received in Leopard [/QUOTE]
