It's even nice enough to display your local IP address (home network) for you and it can even find your external IP address (internet). For simple file sharing tasks such as this one, rejetto HFS is pretty good. If you want to share your library over the internet (e.g. so you can access via 3G when you're not at home), you can easily password protect your folders (right-click on folder -> Set user/pass).
Has anyone tried this yet? I'd love to get this to work. It says the "Catalog is empty".
