If you want drag and drop action, emerge shfs on your gentoo box. You can then 'mount' any directory from the redhat machine, on the gentoo box, with:
mount -t shfs [EMAIL PROTECTED]/home/user /mnt/somemount
1)
# emerge shfs
Calculating dependencies ...done!

You can then browse /mnt/somemount as if it were local, including sending files to and from those folders.
Bear in mind that all traffic sent over this connection is SSH encrypted and possibly compressed, so will not be as efficient (fast), as ftp or samba. Though on modern computers you should barely notice a slowdown.
