If you want to share files between the 2 systems, ssh is the hard way. You
should use either SAMBA or NFS to set up shared directories. In either
case, the shared folder on one box (the server) ends up as a "folder" on
the other (the client). There are plenty of HOW-TOs on the 'net; Ununtu
documentation area has serveral.
