mounting Linux on Linux

I am running 2 SLED 10SP1 boxes. I would like to mount my home directory on one box to the other for copying files from on to another. Is this possible?

Yes. You can use NFS, or Samba if you have a Windows box in the mix.

I will try the nfs. I have never used that before, but will look into it.

Thank you

I was able to mount to my other Linux box by using

mount -t cifs //computer name/file /mnt/filename
