How can I transfer file from one system to another through internet using java?

Using IP I can not make it up because the Internet using system holds the dynamic IP.

So how can I prefer the particular destination to transfer the file?

Can I use MAC address or is there any other way for it?

Hello,

You can use Apache Http Client library to transfer the files. Instead of IP use FQDN (e.g. www.foo.com). A listener program neds to be present on the receiving side.

FQDN is a human readable name associated with an IP Address. For more info please read this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fully_qualified_domain_name)

You need to know the IP address of the receiving system.

You still need to find an IP address for it. alternatively you can set up a system with a fixed IP address as a server and allow the remote system to download from there.
