[PLUG] [Retitled for clarity] File sharing over a two node LAN

[Russell Senior]

If the "secure" part of scp is bothering you, Richard, you can use rcp
instead. But, really it's all the same thing and the normal way of copying
files over a network for the last couple decades. You are *always* going to
request that a copy happen from one side. In the scp/rcp context, that side
going to be the "client", and the automated software that responds to that
request on the other side will be the "server", but the server might be
receiving the file or sending it.  Unless you hire some morse operators to
send data back and forth, that's probably about as serverless as you are
going to get.
