What is Simple Socket File Transfer?
This utility will transfer a file between two computers using a TCP port of your choosing. One computer uses passive mode and listens on a port for a connection from the other computer, which will use active mode to connect to the first computer via its IP address. Regardless of the selection of which computer will use passive mode and which will use active mode, files can be sent in either direction. Partially completed transfers can be resumed, and files are automatically checked with MD5 to ensure they were received error-free. This utility is available in both ANSI and Unicode builds, and has no dependencies on any libraries beyond those included with Windows. The Unicode build supports Windows XP visual styles and Unicode file names. Both builds boast a tiny size of 8k.
Comments and Reviews
Bidirectional transfer - you can choose which side will need port forwarding (for WAN transfers). Very simple to setup and runs excellently via LAN.
