How do I communicate between two Linux machines?

Communication between Linux/UNIX and other different computers, networks and remote users is possible. The ping command checks whether the connection with a hostname or IP-address is working or not. Run ‘ping IP address or Hostname’ on the terminal. FTP is preferred protocol for sending and receiving large files.
