Dukto : An Open-source, cross-platform LAN file transfer tool



Dukto is an open source, multi-platform, easy to use  file transfer tool designed for LAN use. I have been using it for over an year 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 in Fedora 22)

(Dukto in Android 4.4.4)

Dukto is developed by Emanuele Colombo, a software developer and engineer. Dukto automatically displays all the devices in your local area network running Dukto and you can select the devices and start transferring files. You can even send a folder to another device.

You can also transfer text snippets like links and notes easily from one device to another.


You can change the default folder to save received files from the settings. You can also change theme color and device name from settings.



Dukto is available for various Linux environments, Windows, Mac OS X, iOS, Android, Blackberry,  Windows Phone and Maemo.


Since Dukto doesn't use any pass-codes or encryption, it is recommended to use only on trusted local area networks.

How to enable Google Now in Nepal and other countries (Solve - Google Location reporting not available in your region problem)

Google Now was first introduced in Android 4.1 Jellybean and it has been used as a personal assistant by many android users ever since. However after the introduction of Android 4.4 Kitkat many users started to complain that the search update broke google now functionality.   Some of you might just have bought a shiny new Nexus 5 to enjoy a fine android experience but the lack of Google Now left you disappointed. When on the home screen of the default Android Launcher, swiping to the left should take you to the Google Now interface but for some of the users it is nowhere to be found. Also there are many people who flash custom roms to enjoy latest android builds on their devices. I am using Galaxy Nexus which didnot get the Kitkat update from Google. So i flashed a custom rom which promised the Google Now feature on the left side of the homescreen of default Kitkat launcher. But like some of you Nexus 5 users i was left disappointed. So i began my quest for searching a meth

This extension substitutes Alt-Tab with a window based switcher that

How to enable Google Now in Android 5.0 Lollipop in Nepal and every other countries (location reporting not available problem) [ROOT Needed]

  [This method works only on Rooted Devices] I had posted a guide earlier this year on How to Enable Google Now in Nepal and other countries. That method works flawlessly on both Rooted and Non-Rooted devices running Android 4.0 to Android 4.4.4 Kitkat. Android has now gone into major overhaul in both design and software functions like ART being now default in Android 5.0 Lollipop. But with the new version of Android, same old problem arrived for the people living in Nepal and many other countries - "Location reporting is not available in your country". Tried every available method to enable Google No w ? Still no luck??  Keep calm guys, I have a solution. Remember that this method works only on Rooted devices. Here's a video showing Google Now running on my Phone. (ignore Ariana Grande news there. I googled her only when I was shocked to hear Big Sean is dating her :D ) Here are the steps to be followed: Step 1 : Install any custom launcher. I
