Networking to Ubuntu
My partner has just bought a new laptop using Windows7 and currently is in the process of finding her way with the new OS. Previously she was using XP.
Currently I access the XP system from my Ubuntu laptop and this is primarly to ensure a full backup of her data apart from XP.
What I would like to know is 2 fold.
Firstly how do I access the Windows7 laptop in order that I can assist in backing up data externally. This would let me see both XP and seven on my Ubuntu system.
Secondly as she is a bit unsure at the moment with seven she is using XP and then copying data over to the seven system. How do I arrange matters that access the XP data from the seven system. This could make things a bit easier to compare both side by side.
I find things easier to keep matters up to date from Ubuntu as I can keep out of her feet and work clutter free so if you can offer a solution it will be most appreciated.
