How do i access one gentoo fs from another over the network? Sorry, i'm vague, but i don't know where to start. I need to be able to access file on the other coms. I nedd to know the best way and a way i can do this just by booting off the install ISO (long story).

This really depends on what you need to do. If you just want to copy a couple of files across, then set up sshd on the gentoo box you want to copy from:
Code:
 emerge openssh
rc-update add sshd default
Then use scp (which is on the gentoo CD) to copy files from the host computer.

If it's more complicated than this you need to investigate NFS - do a google search for a NFS How-to and I'm sure you'll find lots of advice

Also you'll need to make sure the firewall on the host box allows incoming ssh connections (default port is 22)
