Speaking of exporting data, I'm curious as to what humbug members are 
using at home to get data from one machine to another in a convenient, 
adhoc manner. Lately I've been jumping between desktop environments and 
was fairly happy with the fish: module. That allows konqueror to access 
any machine you can ssh into as if it were local. Going back to gnome I'm 
finding myself without a happy alternative. I currently have two linux 
machines, each turned on at different (only sometimes overlapping) times 
of the day. When both are up I want authorised users from each machine to 
be able to access portions of the other that they have permission to 
access simply. Out of convenience I've been using samba and smb: links 
within nautilus, but is there a better way? The first thing that comes to 
mind is webdav. Is there anyone out there with experience sharing files 
using webdav? What are humbuggers using on their home machines?

Benjamin.
