Hi, I have a laptop (Mac OS) and a remote PC (Ubuntu) and would like to do the heavy work on the remote machine but control it via the laptop. I managed to install ssh server and can now remotely connect to my PC via ssh and can start an R session in the terminal.
However, I still don't quite understand how I can now "exchange" R objects. I have the raw data I want to read and analyse on my laptop. So I need to read the files on the laptop and 'send' the r object to the remote PC. The remote PC should then do the heavy calculations and send back the result data frames, so that I can export/save the result tables on my laptop. Is this even possible with ssh (send R objects from client to server and vice versa)? Are there R packages who help to establish ssh connections? Can I also connect to the server via the R gui? thanks for any suggestions and tips! ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
