FileSharing - Bunsenlabs to Bunsenlabs - Pc2Pc/Ethernet

Tried several things from tutorials. Dont have internet.. Isnt there a easy solution to simply copy paste between two bunsenlabs via ethernet cable?
Guess one has to be the router?

Not really, just assign an IP address to the ethernet interface on each machine and then run an ftp server to transfer the data.

Note that a crossover cable is required rather than a plain ethernet cable.

Detailed instructions here:

EDIT: you can use thunar (the file manager) with an ftp server, apparently:

An alternative:

Works well if you have two machines connected to the same router (wifi/ethernet)

Run this on box1:

python3 -m http.server --cgi

On box2, type in box1's ip:port in the browser. E.g: 192.168.1.65:8000

I bought two ethernet cables, dont think they are crossover.

...when i was using 'daphile' the os found my Computer via its IP as a router, on which it could be even found as a workgroup; plain cable i assume.

No internet, though i have a Server/Router/internet thing from a german internet provider laying around. Its called fritzbox.

No Computer to Computer with ethernet only? Really?

Samba (SMB) or SSHFS (simplest method).

Crossover cables shouldn't be needed in recent enough computers anymore because their NICs support auto mdix. Recent like in about 2005.

ab90 · 2018-02-01 09:32:29

I think i need internet then.
Do i need samba on only one pc? Maybe i came with the fresh install of bunsenlabs, since my first pc didnt have it, uninstalled a lot in it...
Sshfs is never installed on setup, right?

ab90 · 2018-02-01 12:40:01

Sshfs installation was successfull, the samba package didnt work.
Sshfs has no interface, only terminal with a formula given:
So writing -
username'@host:'foldername 'mountpoint' -xyz - will make a folder visible for other Computer via cable beeing plugged in those two?

ab90 · 2018-02-01 16:35:15

Now i did write while beeing connected in one pcs terminal:
sshfs ab90@host: ~/mount

Mount is a new empty folder, since sshfs requestet so.

I also tried with home/ab90/ -o nonempty -o allow_other

...allow_other would need to have been setup in the config file before...it says.

The wired connection was on automatic on both computers

this format

sshfs remoteUser@remoteHostOrIp:/remote/path /local/path

is working for me (using full absolute path names). Firts thing you should test is simple:

ssh remoteUser@remoteHostOrIp

to know if you can get into remote shell. And even before that

ping remoteHostOrIp

If i write ping IP_other_Computer it asks me whether i want to broadcast

looks i have to copy paste every single file this way, since folders will be a html

malm · 2018-02-04 12:52:29

Yes :-)

Or you could create a tarball on the server and download that.

It depends what you are going to use it for.

ab90 · 2018-02-04 14:57:57

Transfer, please.

Pcmanfm, and probably Thunar as well, supports internet protocols. Basically, all that is needed are the inet addresses for the two computers. For details for pcmanfm, see http://lxlinux.com/#2.

You don't need internet, you can connect both pcs to the router and connect them to the same network, then you can share any folder with NFS

Why to a router and not pc to pc
