Linux Recently I stumbled across a very nice article, written by Torsten Scheck, published on pro-linux.de, a German Linux site. This article proved to be so helpful to me that I decided it would be worthwhile to translate it into English and republish it. Comments of the translator will be added in italics. I hope a lot of people will find this little gem as useful as I did...

RE: Transferring data

"I find the easiest way to transfer data is to use a second machine as a server. Share the files out via samba and nfs, and keep all your data on the 'server'. 100baseTX is fast enough for most applications, and you don't have to back up files when you format and reinstall your workstation"

Thats so true.Thats my setup with my mandrake 10 file/print server.
