If you don't mind the command line, look into scp (and ssh for
loginsand remote execution of programs), it is a very good tool. It also
encrypts the data while it's being transfered if that matters to you (the files
aren't encrypted, just the data as it's being transferered) .

Reply: I do mind the commandline for things such as this. I can do lots via cli,
but I am typing and memory challenged (old age, I guess), so typing long paths
etc. is not my cup of tea. I make too many errors to make it worth my while.
Thanks for the thought though. I am sure that someone else can use it.

NFS is something that I want to try, but have not got around to it. Too many
things happening.
