Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, Dukto is an open-source, multi-platform file transfer tool that enables the users to easily send files from one computer to another, via LAN, without requiring any configuration to be done.
To use it, you have to install Dukto on the machines you want to transfer files to/from and launch the app. The app recognizes the other systems running Dukto on LAN and so, you can start the file transfer. By default, the files will be saved in your home directory. Among others, the users can send text, data from clipboard, files and folders via this app.
The latest version available is Dukto 6, which has been released a while ago.
