Screen control only - mjsickel

VNC is only for doing things on the screen. You need to find another way to transfer files. I think that Timbuk2 and Apple Remote Desktop may have the ability to transfer files. However, both of those cost money.

VNC = screensharing - ryandesign

Yeah, what mjsickel said. VNC is a screensharing technology. What you need is a filesharing technology. Consider using FTP (file-transfer protocol) or SFTP (secure file-transfer protocol) or scp (secure copy) or AFP (AppleShare filing protocol).
