The way I did it was to hook up the PC and the Amiga through a
null modem cable. Using Miami on the Amiga side, and some specific
set up on the PC side, I got a PPP link going through the serial
cable. I set up an FTP server on the PC, using WFTP, and ran FTPMount
on the Amiga. Oh yes! And I had to run a Proxy program on the PC. I
think it was called Proxy+. It was freeware anyways. So not only
could I transfer files that way, I could surf the web with the Amiga
through the null modem cable, through the PC with its cable modem. I
don't recall how fast it was. I have a GVP IO-Extender and used the
serial port there since it's more robust than the native Amiga serial
port.
Sorry that I can not remember any more specific details. I did
this about a year and a half ago.
