This was probably already explained by Steven, but what exactly do we do 
besides insmod plip.o.gz (after gunzipping) to transfer files between 
linux computers?  

Last time we used Kermit and a nullmodem cable but the cable is at another 
address.  We are impatient to get Opera 7 on the other computer, and also 
Firebird, but don't want to do another long download, and besides it will 
help if we transfer the entire contents of one computer to another (as a 
compressed file) to do it parallel instead of serial - faster.  


The Linux Doctor book did not give details, except on how to construct the 
cable (we have two already) and how to compile the kernel for plip 
support.
