I find that the most direct secure and easy way to manage moving files
around a home network is scp ..... secure copy, one of the ssh suite of
utilities.

the command takes the form:

scp [[user@]from-host:]source-file [[user@]from-host:]destination-file]

and can move individual files or directories.

For a very helpful review of this subject (much more clear and beyond
the scope of this forum) please refer to the entry for SSH Server under
Networking in the Ubuntu FAQ Guide either online or directly on your
computer by clicking on the Help lifesaver icon and choosing Ubuntu 5.10
