Anyone got some advice on transfering files between Mac and Linux??

I'm running Mandrake at the moment on a PC laptop.

I don't really know Linux very well. Mostly what I know is through using MacOSX actually.

Anhow... i'm having trouble getting file sharing to work. The FTP clients totally suck. I can't figure out how to enable my PC laptop to act as an FTP server, I can't seem to mount my Mac as an FTP server on their file system, Samba4K is refusing to connect to the Mac despite that it works from the PC...

The GUI is slow and unresponsible and clumsy too.

Basically, it sucks.

Any ideas anyone?

In sharing on the Mac turn on "FTP Access" and pay attention when you turn it on

Use an FTP client on linux (command line or what ever) to connect to that FTP on the Mac

I do this all the time from Windows and Linux
