what is the easiest way to connect to my pc from XMBC and play movies from the hdd of my computer? i've looked all over the forums but just have found things that i couldn't put together really or that didn't work.

i'm running an ftp server on my pc, whenever i try connecting to it, i get this

000002) 9/21/2004 1:00:47 PM - (not logged in) (192.168.1.5) > connected to ip : 192.168.1.100
(000002) 9/21/2004 1:00:47 PM - (not logged in) (192.168.1.5) > sending welcome message.
(000002) 9/21/2004 1:00:47 PM - (not logged in) (192.168.1.5) > 220 BulletProof FTP Server ready ...
(000002) 9/21/2004 1:00:47 PM - (not logged in) (192.168.1.5) > disconnected.

my format of connecting to the pc is like so, xns://user:[email protected]:21

i've tried "ftp" instead of "xns" like it normally is on computers only. and i know my ftp is set up right because others have connected to in on the internet. should i not use my local ip?

You looked all over the forum and didnt find anything?

May i suggest you start with reading the pinned topic once more, and this times with your eyes open.

Poorest excuse to be spoonfed the information in along time here...
