I have my 3 machines connected together with nfs. This mounts whatever directory you want, including the whole file system if you need, on another machine as a file system. I have it set up so that each home directory appears on the other computers desktops. This also allows various applications to be synced using Unison, eg Gramps, Tellico, document files, I even used to sync email but now use IMAP.On 07/08/12 19:27, Rob Beard wrote:Personally myself I use SSHFS. This means I have to install SSH on my server (but I SSH into it anyway so it's installed). I can then from Gnome connect to an SSH share by selecting the Connect to Server option and then selecting the service type as SSH and entering the details (host name, remote username, remote password, optionally port and folder name which you could put as / to access everything from the root directory upwards or maybe /home/username to access the files in the users folder).If you have ssh server, you have "scp" and "rsync" as well. I use "scp" to move small groups of files.
