Hi,

I have two computers in LAN (PC and Laptop) and both of them has an internet connection. How do I transfer files in LAN between these computers?

If you can see the other computer on the network, it is as simple as putting the items into a "shared" folder (or making an existing one "shared').

If you're using Windows, open a command prompt and get each machine's IP address. Type ipconfig and you should both have a similar addy, probably off by one digit at the end. Set up a share on one machine like colbyt suggests, and make sure you give the other machine/user rights to create files there.

start > run > \\(name of your other computer) and enter. If windows (simple file sharing) is enabled. If not, you may be prompted for a UN password. Then just enter the admin one for other machine. Open up shared docs, and just drag and drop.

right click on the folder or the partioned hard disk drive(e.g. F: drive) then click on the sharing tab then click on the icon showing to share this drive..
now from your other computer you can access the same drive you shared. now simply do the copy paste and the data is copied to your new machine..
if more problems give me a shout.......
