This is very simple. I love logmein.com as I said before, but I think $12.95 a month is a bit high just to have file transfer capabilities (though the $12.95 includes file, printing, and sound capabilities) at least for me. To do this I’d recommend you first read my logmein article and my foldershare article, then follow the steps below. Though this doesn’t allow true file transfer capabilities, it will help you get a file to a pc, and vice versa. Click on the read more tag below for the step by step.
Now the Steps

1. Create a outbound folder on your pc, and all your remote pcs.

2. Then install foldershare on your pc, and all your remote pcs.

3. Then go to foldershare and synchronize the outbound folders for each computer.

4. Now place a file in your outbound folder on your pc, and in a few minutes (depending on the file size) the same file should be available on all your remote pcs.

Now that the file is available on all your computers in the outbound folder, just use logmein to copy the file to the folder you want. This avoids you paying the $12 bucks a months, takes a bit more work to setup at first. The next time you want to copy a file to your remote pcs, just place it in your pc’s outbound folder and whola in a few minutes it’s in your remote pc’s outbound folder also.
