How to connect 2 SuSE computers?
Hi all,
after cruising almost 2 months with SuSE linux 9.0, I'm still a happy user, but I never managed to connect 2 of my SuSE installations to eachother.
Now I'm working together with a friend (who installed SuSE too and is very happy with it too) and we're trying together how to make our files visible to eachother. The goal is to use a shared 'htdocs' folder to work on together.
If I understand it right Samba is only needed for connections with windows boxes (but since I hate my own XP-box soo much now, crashing its 'ass' off on a cd-read-timeout, I won't need it much more longer.) But without Samba how can I connect 2 SuSE boxes so that I can see them in for instance Konqueror filemanager? (Or should we setup a ftp server?)
I'm really stuck on this one, since I've tried a couple of times now and there seems to be no progress..
The 2 linux boxes can ping eachother from a console (even a graphical one),
I can use the routing-functionality of one SuSE-box to let the other go online (I'm actually writing this on a SuSE-laptop trough the other computer ..)
The router computer's hostname is 'linux', domain 'local', IP 192.168.0.1 (internal)/DHCP (external cablemodem)
The other's hostname is 'laplin', domain 'local', IP 192.168.0.139
Thx a lot pple!
Linux rules!
