There are hundreds related to TCP/IP. Start with RFC 1180 (TCP/IP Tutorial).

I've found rsync to be pretty good for this.
Shut down to single user mode (telinit 1).
Unmount all partitions you aren't using (e.g. /home)

Once installed it looks very pretty and slick, but during the install, all
the packages downloaded from the net instead of from the CD. Did I do

a couple of things, hit enter a couple of times, and 30mins later I
was running a bleeding edge distro, 2.6 kernel, Gnome 2.8, etc, etc.

You shouldn't have to install samba to browse shares in Nautilus, it uses

How does it handle authentication. I think it asked me once.
Nautilus/gnome-vfs use gnome-keyring to ask for auth details.
Can the auth details be cleared out somewhere?
The keyrings are stored in ~/.gnome2/keyrings/ but there is no keyring
