Free File Server?

Does anybody know of a simple open-source/free program that accepts incoming TCP connections and then allows a client to send over a file. The server will then have to save the file in a folder where it is installed. I could code this program in ~3-4 hours but my boss won't be happy with that. So if anybody knows of such application, please do let me know. Thanks.

It would take you 3 hours to write a simple file transfer application? :?

I'm not aware of any projects, There is TFTP but that works over UDP not TCP. (And isn't very nice with large files..).

Why exactly would your "boss" be against a small program written by you, versus one written by someone else? :lol:

can the server setup a samba/nfs/win share?
or another great idea is posted above (ftp).

If either of the computers are running OpenSSH or a supporting SSH daemon then SCP would work.
