Sharing files

WT · 12-12-2002, 08:04 AM

I've configured my network card and am able to ping to and from each of my 2 computers, one MDK and the other Knoppix. However, I can't figure out how to share files between the 2. Is there a special program (like linneighborhood?) that I have to use to see and share files on the other computer? Do I have to be root? Right now, all I can share is a ping.

Thanks,
Wayne

Try:
' man nfs '
' man exports '

--Or there is always ftp.
