VNC file transfer ? I need help please?

Hello !

I have my first Mac and now I need some help using it. I have found that I can get to my pc with a web browser but haven't been able to use file transfer.

I have found Chicken of VNC and connect to my pc but don't know how to use the file transfer.

Both solutions say that they do file transfers but neither has information on how to do that, can someone please help.

Thanks &
Take Care

Roy,

This won't help much; but I use Chicken of the VNC with RealVNC on the windows machines; and I can control them very well but have had nothing but trouble trying to do file transfers with them from mac to windows. When I try to drag and drop a file into the CotVNC, it attempts to do something, but then gives me an error, sometime to the tune of .plist file not found.

I just ran into this problem last night and was only able to circumvent the problem using a file transfer service, AIM, MSN, etc, on both computers.

If I figure out another solution to directly use the programs to transfer files, I will post it.
