Leopard now supports setting up an ftp server directly, without the
intervention of any other applications or utilities. If you have an
Ethernet card on the IIgs, that is supported by Marinetti, then the
easiest method of transferring files back and forth between them is my
free FTP utlility SAFE2.

As a bonus, you can also of course transfer files back and forth between
any ftp server on the Internet.
