[newbie] Mac <-> Mandrake at the CLI

[Brian&#x27;s Linux Box]

Hello All,

 I need to transfer some files that I downloaded on my Mandrake
Box to 
my Mac. I am running samba on both machines, so they can see
each other on the network. The problem I am having is, when I
open nautilus on my mandrake box and browse to the share on my
mac, the program stalls out. 
I was wondering if there was a way to transfer files over my
local network from one machine to the next using the trusty
command line.

Thanks,

Sure - Assuming OSX since you said samba - use 'scp' 
Requires you have ssh installed on your Mandrake machine.  You'll have
to turn it on in the Mac sharing preference pane.
Then from the Mandrake box type (all one line)
scp
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/Users/mac_user_name/Documents/fileyouwant
/home/mandrake_user_name/Desktop 

adjust the /path/to/file name as required
Use scp -r to transfer recursively

HTH

PS  You could try using Konqueror instead of Nautilis.

Does cpuinfo show  the actual cpu MHz that the cpu is running at
or does it 
only show what it is rated at ?

I'm pretty sure it shows what it is running at  When I overclocked
my XP2500 it reported it as an XP3200
I also _think_ you want the and 7.5 setting as there is some doubling
goes on there somewhere.  I can dig out my manual if required.  I gather
that's the way it's set now?
