There are several different ways of doing what you want. Here is one way which is not very common but rather easy. On each computer install the openssh-server and openssh-clients packages. Now on your KDE Konqueror URL line enter fish://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/path/to/directory where username is a valid user name on the remote computer and hostname is either the IP address or the name of the remote host as defined in your /etc/hosts file. /path/to/directory is the directory name you want to access on the remote host. You will be prompted for a user namepassword of the the remote user. It is possible to configure the system to not prompt for a password.
