how to connect two Knoppix machines
Hi,
I have two machines running Knoppix (from the CD - not HD): a laptop and a desktop. They are connected by a crossed rj45 cable and t/100 network cards. I would like to copy my entire /home directory from the laptop to the desktop. What is the easiest way to do this?
Telnet, ftp and SSH are probably not the most convenient tools, so maybe NFS?
I don't care how I do it as long as it is a KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) way :-)
Could somebody please point me in the right direction (where to find step by step instructions on how to do this - I never did this before)?
Thanks,
Andrei

--I'd just use netcat. No additional services need to be started that way, and it's fast.
Desktop, as root: ' cd /home; nc -l -p 32100 |tar xvpf - ' == Start listening on port 32100
Laptop: ' cd /home; tar cpvf - Your-dir |nc -w 3 Remote-ip 32100 '
--You are aware of course that this will overwrite every file in the destination /home that has the same name. You should also double-check the ownership after the copy is done. ' id ' numbers on both machines should be the same, otherwise you have to ' chown -cvR Your-id.Your-id /home/Your-id ' on the desktop.
