I wrote "I use the ftp-plugin in notepad++." in my first post. What is unclear about me talking about a plugin here ?
Correct, and somewhat sloppy of me.
You just got the info. and googling on notepad++ takes you to a nice page with lots of info. and links to wikis/forums etc.
If you ask for help, you are expected to do *some* googling yourself.
That is described in above paragraph. 'Hit ctrl+n' etc..
Usally not. But you *do* need to know the pi's ip-address. One way is to hook it up via hdmi to a tv. When it starts, it will prompt you for login. But just before that it will tell you what IP-address it got. And most dhcp-servers tries to hand out the same ip-address for the same device - but there is no guarantee.
So either set up the router to always assign the same address to the pi - or set a static ip on the pi.
But I think you need google here but the way is to edit the config file
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
to contain
iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.0.14 gateway 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255
if you want the pi to have ip of 192.168.0.14 and use default gateway (your router) as 192.168.0.1
you save with ctrl+O, enter and exit with ctrl+x, enter
Yes but uses scp instead of ftp.
But the whole idea was that this would be easier for you. not harder.
But if you want to use your pi - you need to know it ip-address or work locally on it.
