Anonymous FTP
Each account comes with an Anonymous FTP Server. This might be appropriate if security is not critical. With an Anonymous FTP site you login with the UserID of Anonymous and a password of anything. (Servers usually request your email address for the password, but it is entirely on the honor system.)
Each standard Anonymous FTP Server contains two primary directories. The pub directory is where an administrator places files that may be downloaded by anyone. The incoming directory is where users may upload files; however, they may not overwrite or otherwise modify any existing files. Users can see other files in this directory, but cannot read or copy them.
So, an Anonymous FTP Server is essentially designed for distribution from the host out and distribution from everyone to the host, but limited beyond that.
