Re: SSH Command help
If you're going to copy files between local host and remote host OR between two remote hosts, use the scp command instead....copy files...
At least two ways to do it:...open a libreoffice file...
1. Use samba to share a folder on the remote host, then use your file browser (nautilus) to connect to the remote host and open the file from there. You will be using local resources but editing the file remotely.
2. Add the -X parameter when you ssh the remote machine. As an example for gedit:
Code: Select all
ssh -X username@remotehost.local
...
gedit /path/to/filename
Code: Select all
ssh -X username@remotehost.local gedit /path/to/filename
