You will need to start the FTP service on the Windows box. Make sure the
box is behind a separate firewall such as a wireless access point a la
Airport or Linksys. Disable anonymous FTP. Create a special folder to be
the FTP root, and set the access permissions to the minimum that will work.
Turn off the FTP service when not in use, as it poses such a large security
vulnerability.

I don't know what objects it supports.
