Basic FTP and man (manual) on Angstrom, NFS share with (k)ubuntu, VNC beagle desktop on host

Is there a package or simple way to install basic command line FTP and
manual (man) with appropriate databse to Angstrom command line ??
I have a working network between the 2, using usb gadget mode, so
pinging both ways, connecting the beagle to the internet using the
host's ethernet or viewing beagle desktop on the host using VNC already
work.
Beyond that, has anyone managed to share a folder between (k)ubuntu and
Angstrom on Beagle, using NFS or something similar ? If so, what is the
procedure ? It should be simple, but I must be missing something ...
Thanks for any hint

PS : in case someone find these usefull here are the usb-gadget mode
connection scripts for beagle and kubuntu. You may have to install the
VNC packages on both platforms, and will have to modify the nameserver
adress for the beagle to match the one in the host's/etc/resolv.conf. It
is sometimes necessary to rerun the scripts. After running the scripts,
you should be able to ping both platforms from the others, and "ping
google.com" should work on beagle if nameservers are properly set. Then
you can opkg install packages, and so on. The scripts remind the command
to launch VNC on both platforms, but don't do it (just copy-paste).

Beagle (as root):
#!/bin/sh
echo "Configure the usb0 Ethernet net device with IP: 1.1.1.3"
ifconfig usb0 1.1.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

echo "Configure the default gateway to be our Linux host: 1.1.1.2"
route add default gw 1.1.1.2
echo "ajoute le nameserver de free a /etc/resolv.conf"
echo "nameserver X.X.X.X">/etc/resolv.conf
echo "ready!"
echo "lauch VNC : x11vnc -display :0 &"

Host (sudo)
#!/bin/bash
echo "Configure the usb0 Ethernet net device with IP: 1.1.1.2"
ifconfig usb0 1.1.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

echo "Remove any previous NAT setup"
iptables --flush
iptables --table nat --flush
iptables --delete-chain
iptables --table nat --delete-chain

echo "Setup NAT to forward packets from usb0 <---> eth0"
iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface eth0 -j
MASQUERADE
iptables --append FORWARD --in-interface usb0 -j ACCEPT

echo "Enable packet forwarding in the kernel"
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
echo "done !"
echo "launch VNC : xvnc4viewer 1.1.1.3:0 &"

I use gFTP with ssh … easy to use / configure ( works fine on Mojo/armv6el-vfp over wifi )
