I’ve tried before and (failed :() after setting up SABMA (failed) cannot login GUI
Thanks

If you only want to transfer files FROM Windows TO openSUSE, you don’t have to setup SAMBA.
Just type “smb:/” as address in your favorite filemanager (dolphin, konqueror, nautilus, don’t know about others; this even works in Firefox) and you should see your network hosts. Or click on “Browse Network” or similar.
Or use “smbclient” in a terminal window.

Sporadic use, or a shared folder?
The first one, setup ssh from Windows to Linux (puty), then use the
similar program that I think is called winscp, using ssh protocol. Both
are Windows programs.

Hi suse_acer,
From your screenshots I see you may be confused about IP address and name resolving. If you are not sure name resolving is correctly configured, for a temporary basis you should use IP address. IP address is the only thing in common between Samba, ssh, WebDAV, etc.
I suppose that acer-PC and linux-9uod are both connected to the internet via a router. Hence, you have a local network and the internet. When you use What-Is-My-IP websites, such as this one, what you see your IP address on the internet. So, when you are trying from acer-PC to ssh 2.51.129.127 (the IP of linux-9uod on the internet), your paquets have the following path: acer-PC->router->internet->router… And nothing, because your router surely blocks incoming ssh connections from the internet. This is why you get the following error: Server unexpectedly closed network connection.
What you must do is ssh to the local IP of linux-9uod. In that case, your paquets will have the following path acer-PC->router->linux-9uod and will (hopefully) not be blocked.
You can easily retrieve the local IP of linux-9uod using ifconfig. You should then have an output like the following:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:07:E9:D5:E0:5D
**inet addr:192.168.14.1** Bcast:192.168.14.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Here, the local IP for the interface eth0 (Ethernet port) is 192.168.14.1.
Before trying to ssh to linux-9uod, don’t forget to:
- start sshd deamon on linux-9uod (using YaST “Run level” module for example)
- open ssh ports of the firewall
[LIST=1] - on linux-9uod (using YaST “firewall” module for example, you can set the interface zone to internal)
- on acer-PC (depending on your Windows configuration and AV software installed)
[/LIST]
Don’t forget that openSUSE has a fine documentation and even a step-by-step guide for copying and sharing files (openSUSE Reference, Chap. 23).
