Theres a couple of ways you could do this,

• Setup a FTP Server on the other side using a FTP component
• Directly connect to the other machine using a UNC Path
• Use a SCP style system if the machine is a unix box
• Setup a file transfer protocol of your own (ie send a bytestream over the network).

I would strongly recommend using a pre-existing protocol though, such as FTP, that way you can re-use libraries and it promotes inter-op with other programs.
