Some solutions

1. A router - a router will allow you to access your system, especially if you need to access it through a WAN

2. VPN - Virtual Private networks can be set up with 2k, but that wouldnt be too much help here, would it...

3. Any FTP daemon - if you set up FTP, then you can 'share' out the information

Do you have NAT set up on this linux box? If so you can set the box up to forward any FTP request to your external IP to the machine that you are using as the FTP server on your internal network.
