On the lan .. like I got host1 that I'm logged into and I want to put .bashrc into my home directory on host2 .. I have CLI and SSH .. they both have samba and http servers running .
.. nevermind .. I just answered my question. I like redhat .. glad I could finally get it working. It's really fvcking slow in gnome though, but I guess I can attribute that to having only 64 megs of ram. CLI is really nice though, I like the default aliases and just stuff like that .. it has pico and ifconfig .. much better than mandrake.

edit: yeah, is there a put command? Seems like there should be ..

if you have ssh, then you can use scp: scp -l <user> <fromhost:/from/directory/file> <tohost:/to/directory>

Probably, but I never had problems with it...

You ever use CRT n0c? I like it, but the goddamn admins here at work won't let me install anything .. and I have admin access, but they don't want me 'abusing' it by installing stuff .. :(
I can run putty cause it's a standalone exe

I use SecureCRT at work, but only for sshing. I use putty when Im not on my machine. I use cygwin at work too.
