For those of you not familiar with FTP, you can use Windows XP built-in FTP client:
1) Double-click "My Network Places"
2) Select "Add Network Place"
3) Click Next
4) Click Next
5) Type in the IP of your Linux box, e.g ftp://192.168.1.100 then click Next
6) Un-tick "Log on anonymously"
7) Enter the box's user name. (usually "root") click next
8) choose a name e.g VU+ Duo. click next
9) click "finish"
You should now log on to your receiver. If you set a password you can enter it now and it will be saved for future use.
If you want a shortcut on your desktop, right-click on the icon in "My network Places" and select "Create Shortcut" It will be automatically placed on the desktop
The resulting explorer window can be used for drag'n'drop and any other Windows file activity without running any FTP software.
