Do you have ftp services enabled on the Macs?  You can do this from the 
"Sharing" pane in "System Preferences".
Please excuse this simple question if you've already done this. :-)

This worked for me:

on mouseUp
  put "whateverName" into userName
  put "whateverPassword" into password
  put "123.45.67.89" into ipaddress
  get URL ("ftp://" & userName & ":" & password & "@" & ipaddress & 
"/data.txt")
  put it into fld "x"
end mouseUp

Hope this helps...James

Hello everyone,

Is there a way to get a file from one OS X computer to another?  I
tried the both of the following but nothing happens.

on mouseUp
get url ("ftp://user:password@address/Documents/Folder/File")
put it into fld "x"
end mouseUp

on mouseUp
get url ("afp://user:password@address/Documents/Folder/File")
put it into fld "x"
end mouseUp

Gregory
