Hi, You could set up samba on your linux computer and then you can access it from your Mac. Of the opposite way to use smbfs to mount a Mac share from your linux computer. If it is just the occasional file then as Andrew said you can use ssh. Remember if you want to access your Mac from your linux computer you will need to enable these functions via Sharing in the system preferences. Gordon.

I'm interested in accessing files on a Mac OS machine over the network from a Linux host.
They're both my laptops, and currently on the same network, but this is not always the case (i.e., doing this over the Internet may be desirable at some point).
I read a while ago that Apple was moving to SMB for file system access. Is this what I should be looking at? Are secure authentication and encryption supported? Or should I be considering sshfs or NFSv4, or something else? There's no LDAP infrastructure in my home environment.
With thanks and regards,
Jason.
