I wish to connect two laptops via Ethernet.
The Debian machine is having various configurations of Jessie
installed.
Consider it a laboratory experiment. It can have multiple installs
in a day.
It intentionally has *NO* internet connectivity. It has a small
partition
set aside for preseed.cfg and miscellaneous scripts.
The second machine is running WinXP Pro SP3 and serves as source of
preseed
and script files.
What is your present technique for getting files from the second machine
to the first one?
Write files a USB flash drive in format readable to other machine.
That is a nuisance!
Hence the recommendation of turning on the WinXP FTP server!
