iPhone App: FTP Server

There are a few different apps in the app store that turns your iPhone into a storage device. I find this one pretty convenient.

Sick of carrying around a memory stick to transport your files?  This could be a simple solution.  If you'd like to take advantage of all of the space on your iPod touch or iPhone, and don't usually carry your cable around with you this app may be for you.  This app turns your iPhone into a simple FTP server that you can anonymously login to over WiFi and transfer files to and from your phone. There isn't a lot to this app, there are no options, just a simple ftp server with no authentication. When you run the server you are given a console screen that will display the IP address that you will use to login with your favorite ftp client.

On a security note, be sure to use this app on WiFi networks that you trust and don't leave the server running when you don't need it, as there is no authentication and diddyftpserver has some known Ddos vulnerabilities.
