[VicPiMakers SG] Linux networking problem

[Craig Miller]

Hi Stuart,

Wow, haven't run NetAtalk in decades. The Mac will understand NFS, if 
you want to define "shares" on your Linux Laptop to share via NFS. This 
is what I do at my house.

The other option is to run sshfs, then you can log into anything that 
has a ssh server. Works quite well, I even use it to mount my server in 
France (over IPv6, of course).
