Long story short; I have a system in place for archiving etc, the concept is good but I have no idea how to implement it (my networking skills are... 'lackluster'). I have 3 steps I cant get working, plz help :) Both compys are XP
EQUIPTMENT
* Laptop 1 - 'Daedalus' (media/home)
* Laptop 2 - 'Loki' (mobile)
* Ext Harddrive - 'Minos'
* Wireless network - 'Hydra'
STEP 1.
Whenever I set anything to download from Loki, it downloads onto/via Daedalus. So if I a torrent to run, it saves to Minos and runs on Daedalus. If I download a file, it downloads via/to Daedalus (optional). I was thinking mabey if remote network access Daedalus and run the program or something along those lines?
STEP 2
I manually copy the files I want to archive/sort to Loki, and sort them out. ATM my laptops both access Hydra but cant see each other.
STEP 3
Regularly, Daedalus checks Loki for new/updated files and copies them to the same location onto Minos. No idea how to set this up.
Thanks if you can help!
