It doesn't really matter what your machines are connected over, and the general question is Best way to transfer files over a LAN between two Linux computers.– Dan DascalescuOct 14, 2017 at 6:38

You can use TCP as well : How to network two Ubuntu computers using ethernet (without a router)?
Looks this question has been asked before, just install openssh-ssh server it's easier to use rsync with this tool

3rd one down looks good. Just install on both computers.
You could also use rsync to keep the same folders on both machines, or SCP/SFTP if you want to get crazy with it.
