Fling File Transfer

Help v 5.00

Thank you for installing Fling.

Fling is software that makes it easy to upload or transfer files. It is perfect for maintaining a web site on a remote hosted server or to automate back up of folder files. Fling supports both file transfer protocol (ftp) upload, network file transfer and transfer between computers or external hard drives.

After you install the Fling File Transfer Software you setup one or more Fling folders. These folders exist on your local computer. You can work in the folder like any other folder on your computer. Whenever you add or change any file in the folder just right click on it and select "Fling->Upload" and Fling will transfer the file to the correct location on a remote ftp server or network folder. The operation can also be set to be automatic (upload as soon as the files are changed) or at a preset interval (e.g., every hour).

Fling is available in a free version or as a paid version with more features for pro users. We made Fling to help maintain our company's own web sites and folder backups and to help our customers using our BroadWave Streaming Server. If you are looking for a more standard FTP client for downloading and uploading single files, try our Classic FTP File Transfer Software. If you like Fling, please try some of our other programs on www.nch.com.au/software. Some of those programs are also free.
