I am only trying to link two PCs through a hub on the one local network, so I 
can transfer files between them.  Do I need a full-blown ftp server to 
achieve this?

A friend called and transferred a file of mine he wanted from my main computer  
onto his laptop using that hub and ssh.  I guess I am puzzled that I can't 
get my No2 computer to talk with my main computer using that same hub and 
ftp.

Not at this stage.
