How on earth did you get windoze to be an FTP server? What program?
FWIW, I ftp to my freebsd box from win95 often. Hit the silly button in
the corner, click on run and type 'ftp' in there. Treat it much like a
real ftp client, but *caution!* remember to tell it whether binary or
ascii before each file transfer, coz if you give it half a chance it'll
do you in.
