Re: Transfer of files from laptop to desktop
Easiest would be to install ssh on your linux box, and use a SFTP client
(many freely available) to connect to your linux box, and well, copy the
files as if you're using ftp!
Can you get online from your laptop? I mean, can you ping anything else
on the internet from your laptop? If not, the network configuration
might not be working too well.
Naitik.
