What sort of changes you cannot make? I hope you have root access to the laptop. If you have root access to the laptop, the the only thing you have to do is set the connect the cross cable and give ip addresses Use ifconfig to set the ip address on both machines. Then you can use scp to copy files between the machines. Or you can use samba(smb4k) or ftp or http, lots of options available to you. -Devendra Laulkar. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: (plug-mail@plug.org.in) List Information: http://plug.org.in/mailing-list/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
