There are many different techniques. SAMBA, NFS, FTP, even 
Konqueror-based FTP so it copies just like you are copying from one 
directory to another. I like SSH for command line file copying.

Make sure that the SSH daemon is running on the other machine, and 
from the machine you are logged into type, "scp file 
username@othermachine:/home/username/"

The syntax for scp is the same for common tasks as copying with "cp", 
just add the username@othermachine to either the source or 
destination depending on which way you're copying the file.

I'm sure lots of other folks will tell you how they like to do it.
