about ftp connections

[Neeraj]

hey through ftp managers can i connect to my friends pc using ip address
is it possible please help me out

[alib_i]

yes ... definitely .. if he's running an ftp server ..

but if he's inside a LAN where he has his own local IP addr .. and you are outside that LAN ..
then i dont know if it will be possible to connect ..

this means he will have diff IP address everytime he connects to the net..

so you need to know his IP address or use some tool like www.no-ip.org check their site for more info on it...
