"Works for me." I forget how long I have had my house LAN - must be over a decade. Back then, I decided upon the process I would use to communicate from the main (OS/2) system I work on, to the additional systems on the LAN. Ftp is how ALL of my systems are set up. Until I want something ftp does not provide, I see no need to install (and learn to use) alternative ways to ship files between systems on a LAN. -------- I posted because there appeared to be a regression (regarding asking for passwords) in the OLPC behavior -- that exists regardless of how I described happening to notice it. mikus _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
