 Say machine 1 is the "server" and machine 2 is the "client"
 
 On machine one:
 
 Setup password for user root
 start ssh either from the control panel or at boot time with boot option ssh
 
 On machine 2:
 sudo modprobe fuse or use the boot time option fuse
 Then to mount machine1's /tmp directory on machine2 you can do something like this
 
 sudo sshfs root@machine1_ip:/tmp /mnt/test
 
 You will be prompted for root's password on machine1
 
 If successful then on machine2 you can access machine1 /tmp by accessing /mnt/test
 
 
 Best to google sshfs for all the full details and options available.
