actually, with fuse, nautilus and gvfs installed, the best solution is just to use sshfs through gvfs:
- start nautilus - hit Control-L to bring up the location bar - type: ssh://u...@hostname-or-ip-address/ (and provide password or pubkey though config files) voila, bi-directional drag and dropping of files across to the other machine works. you can even drag the mountpoint to the panel in the left to create a permanent shortcut.
