so how do i eithe get ftp working or fish working they both fail miserably right now and it is getting up my thrupenny bits right now because something that used to be so simple is now next to impossible

box to box on local net, synchronizing same user's '~/Documents/' directory, in this case 'carl', recursively:
carl@linux:~> rsync -rv --delete ~/Documents/ carl@IP.IP.IP.IP:~/Documents
-rv = recursive and verbose --delete = if a file no longer exists under source/, delete from target/ * trailing '/' = sync the contents of source/, do not copy source/ itself
This is far and away the easiest method.
Or, if you just want to copy a file:
carl@linux:~> scp somefile carl@IP.IP.IP.IP:~/Documents
hth & regards :-)

That would not work for a bidirectional sync. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
