Yes, you can use samba or nfs to transfer files. samba would be better for file sharing between windows and linux.

Since the eclipse side is running windows nothing needs to be installed. You would need to install samba server on the target.

nfs is available for windows but samba would be easier.

If both are running linux nfs would be the better choice. If using a package manager it will automatically install to the correct directories.

Again the package manager will install everything as required.

What distribution is running on the development system i.e the eclipse computer?

Could you please help me the specific website to download the NFS server for linux ??

Network File System (NFS), which allows a server to share directories and files with clients over a network.
I am reading few documents regarding NFS server and not finding enough information to read the files from client and put that on the network. I am finding only the documents to server to create a directory and read by the client.

Is there any good document regarding this ??

In my case I want to put the file over the network .

Please help me

You should be able to install nfs using the package manager for your host computer. Please post the linux distribution / version it is running.

You can install them both. The package manager does that automatically.
