Arch Linux: File sharing in 10 seconds

in #dlive7 years ago (edited)


make sure you have "python" installed

open a terminal

check your ip address with „ifconfig“ or "ip addr" (in my case 192.168.111.111)

cd to the directory you want to share

type „python -m http.server“

the server is now running. you can access it from other computers in your network by opening a browser and typing the ip address of the server on port 8000 (in my case 192.168.111.111:8000)

enjoy sharing :)
