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, -=Thinker 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 Brian PS You could try using Konqueror instead of Nautilis.....
