如何连接到 linux 中的本地主机

Question

I want to do a connection between a computer simulating being a server and another computer being a user, both with Linux.

In the first computer I've created a directory called "server" and in that directory I've done the following command:

python3 -m http.server 8080

Then I can see that directory going to the localhost. But what I want is to see that localhost from the other computer, I tried with wget, and the gnome system of sharing files but none of them worked, and I'm not seeing any solution online.

Answer 1

I'm not sure I fully understand your question but if you want to reach your folder from an other computer with your command python3, you can use the option -b followed by an IP address used on your linux.

Answer 2

All you need to do is get the IP of the server using ifconfig command. ifconfig | grep 192 make sure not to use the broadcast address part.

Now logon to the other machine and hit the command

http://192.168.71.145:8080

And it should work. Here I have assumed that your IP is 192.168.71.145 and the port is 8080.

Just change the IP and port as per your values.

Answer 3

If I'm understanding your question correctly you want to connect to the server from another machine on the same network.

If so you can run hostname -I on the server to output to the local IP address of the server, you can then use this on the other machine to connect to it (provided they are on the same network)
