Networking OS X with Mandrake Linux 9.1
Hi ppl. I finally have my Linux server running. The ony thing is that I've got no way of getting files off of it. Is there anything I can do to network the two machines (my iBook and my Gateway machine I that I'm using as a server) together? I wanna be able to pull files off of it. Any help would be appreciated.

$mount linux:/dir_path /some_dir_mountpoint on OS x.

Where can I find Lisa? Would the SMB shit be on my Mandrake CDs? Thanks for the replies.
scp 192.168.x.x:/Users/n00b/amateur_porno/*.mpg ./
or similar.
'man scp' of course.
On linux, '/etc/init.d/sshd start' starts it up. Search google for how to get it to automatically start on boot (which is very smart and handy for remote administration!). On OSX, it's in your network prefs somewhere, called 'remote login' or something.
