[SOLVED] Can I edit website from another computer.

I am using an oldish laptop as a server for my website and have done for the last three years using Nginx. My question is can I edit the site from another laptop on the same network. All my computers are on Linux and I use gedit as the equivalent to notepad.

Hello,

Yes, you can use SSH to remote in and view and edit your files. Using SSH, you can also mount your laptop on another computer, and access it, almost like how you would do in windows, but better.

Cheers,

Josh

Thanks for your reply and sorry for my late reply. I found SSh a bit complicated but you gave me an idea of what I needed so I in fact used teamviewer as it was easy to install and use.
