I'm not aware of a way to do it through Nautilus without mounting the remote device first, but I might be wrong. I'd look up NFS if I were you (unfortunately I don't have any info right now; I use almost entirely Samba at home, even for Linux <-> Linux communication since it's just easier). An unnecessarily complicated route might be to go with Fuse (http://fuse.sourceforge.net) and the SSHFS tool. This would allow you to mount the remote device to a local mountpoint over SSH. I just started playing with it myself over the weekend. -- Sláinte, Richard S.
