hai,
i am using mandrake10.0
i have two systems connected by LAN .
using ssh i can connect to other....
using the scp i can copy the files....
but when i launch konqueror it opens well......but copy the files graphicaly to my linux box ..........the error is....
The file or folder /home/staff/Documents/BizPlan does not exist
when copy graphically why this is happening?
can u please clear my doubt....
when using the command mode there is no problem.......
What url do you type in konq to see the remote files?
Do you have the right to copy that file as the konq user?
Does the directory /home/staff/Documents/BizPlan really exist on your PC?
Could you please be more specific when you describe what you're doing.
I mean, a line like "just obtaining the remote console......in my box.....and $konqueror..." doesn't really
tell me anything.
If you can copy some files but not others from the same directory, I still think it's a rights issue.
Oh, and make sure you clean your keyboard. Your dot key seem to have stuck.
Basically my answer was "I can't understand your questions".
You need to tell me exactly what you're doing when you try to copy the files.
The line you wrote: "just obtaining the remote console......in my box.....and $konqueror..." means nothing
to me; I can't understand what you've done.
I can understand that english isn't your first language (it isn't mine either, I'm swedish) but try to
explain every step you do.
Again: if you can copy some files from a directory but not others, I think it's a rights issue.
Do a 'ls -la' on the remote directory and see if the file rights differ between the files you can copy
and the ones you can't.
My last line was a remark of you bad habit of adding dots...... after...... every...... sentance.....
okay sir i will explain u clearly.
1) i have two syatems.
2)i want to copy some files from system 1 to system 2.
3) i want to copy the files by a graphical user intraface.
how to copy those files by graphical user intraface.
and
4)so i entered to the remote host by "#ssh -X ststem2"
5)i get the terminal of the remote system.
6)here i typed "#konqueror"
7)i get the display of the remote system is in my linux box
8)so using mouse just copy the files....and paste in to my box.
9)here i got the error "/home/staff/guru file not exists"
so how to copy the files by a grapical user intraface.
OK, now you're making sense.
I don't think you can copy any files using the method you describe. When ssh:ing to
another system and opening a program there you don't automatically get acces to the files
on both systems. What happens when you select a file in the remote konq is that the path
on the remote filesystem (in your case "/home/staff/guru") is put in the clipboard.
Then, when you move the mouse over to your local system and paste, it tries to find the
/home/staff/guru on your local system to copy the file from. This then fails.
However konq has the ability to access and copy remote files through ssh.
Start konq on your local system and type 'fish://address-to-your-remote-system' in the URL list.
You should get a login/passwd box where you enter your remote login/passwd.
Now you should see your remote files and be able to copy them locally.
No you can not connect to a Windows PC. The remote PC needs to have sshd running.
Perhaps that's the problem with 10.255.240.104. Make sure you can ssh to it.
