THE FASTEST LAN NETWORK FILES TRANSFER TOOL
You are trying to send a photo from your mobile to laptop or vice versa but you
can't remember where the cable is. Sometime, your friend wants to share a
video from his iPhone to your android phone and you want to see it right away.
Or you want to send a large file to your college but the USB is nowhere. Even
if you have it, the speed is really poor and it will takes you a ton of time to
wait for it to finish. If you are in one of these situations, I will show you a
magic tool that will help you do these jobs in a very simple way. You don't
have to wait any longer, it's DUKTO - an open source, multi-platform, easy
to use file transfer tool designed for LAN use .
Dukto on Ubuntu
I have been using it for
over 5 years now to transfer files from my Laptop (running various Linux
distros) to my phone and other windows PCs. It's user interface is inspired
from the Metro style UI developed by Microsoft and it is consistent across all
supported platforms.
Dukto on Android
Dukto doesn't require any
configuration: simply install it on the machines you want to transfer files
from/to, launch the application and that's it. The application will
automatically display all the computers in your local area network running
Dukto and you can start transferring files. By default, the files you
receive are saved in your home folder but you can change that from the Dukto
settings.

Besides being able to
transfer files and folders on your LAN, Dukto also supports sending text
snippets so for instance
you can easily send a link from one computer to another in your LAN.
Dukto R6 features:
· supports sending and receiving files or folders
as well as text snippets on your LAN;
· multi-platform;
· multi-transfer support;
· zero configuration;
· clients auto-discovery;
· transfers log;
· shows your IP addresses on the IP connection
page;
· full Unicode support;
· Windows 7 taskbar integration with progress and
transfer indicator;
· Metro style UI with configurable colors.
One tiny thing you should notice is there isn't any security feature
implemented by the application or by the communication protocol as Dukto has
been developed for LAN use. Use it only in trusted networks. Anyway, currently
there are no known issues about the protocol.
And this is the most
important part: Link to download Dukto.
