Well i wanted to turn my computer into a network file sharing server... simple yes...
Now im thinking about making it so i can send it a script or something and it will download a song... Then with the network file sharing server i can listen to the song...
Basically it goes like this
My computer ----Script---> Server Computer ---downloading---> Server HardDrive ---Sharing---> My Computer
Cool idea... How can i do it? I think i may need to learn scripting of some sort... Anyone have any ideas? _________________

Define downloading?
From HTTP? You can write a little application that takes 1 parameter (the filename to download) and make it do a simple GET /<filename here> to the HTTP server.
FTP?
Kinda the same just write a little application that downloads it from FTP.
Now if you're talking about 3rd party P2P download applications...
It's gonna be a lot harder since you'll have to write an application to either control those programs (moving mouse, clicking etc like a macro) or write your own client that connects to the P2P network(s) and download it.
