i wish i have this function in TC becures i many times i copy data from one server to a server behind a firewall where only some ports are open

just like the "client/server LPT" function.
but using a tcp port over a network and not a LPT link cabel

But it is exactly the wish! Look at topic name.

I did. What he wants is tcp/ip fileserver but embedded into TC. Usually ftp servers are commercial (therefore the pay factor) and you need to install them on the machine you want to use it.
What he seeks is convenience. (IMHO)
