the concept is clear i searched a lot but there is no software that can make N900 send receive files over wifi. A new software called Dukto for symbian and many other platforms is available but no support for maemo.
Any one can reply on this....pls
Era of bluetooth is gonna end just like Infrared.

What do you mean there is no software to make the n900 send and receive files over wifi?

I've been using scp to do that with my n900 every day for over a year.

I set up rsync to automatically synchronise with my laptop over wifi at 5pm every day. There are actually many solutions for this.

You can also mount nfs and cifs shares with Wizard Mounter and just use the file manager to copy files on and off the n900.

I use KDE and so have my n900 file system mounted via ssh/scp as a folder too. You can do the same with Windows.

I use rsync to synchronise any music, video, or other folders I want on my n900.

I use dropbox to get and recieve files from the "cloud".

If you can tell us more about what you want to do we can provide more options.

all you people know is technical and complicated softwares which are incomplete. I am talking about a simple software which can give us extra option of sending files over wifi to any other device which has wifi capability. PLS give me detailed simple instructions if you know one.
also tell where i can download.

just google search 'Dukto' and you will know how simple that software is.

another solution would be sshfs but its about the same level of complexity as the previous answers

1. Install WizardMounter from the repos.

2. Launch it.

3. Set up a new connection (what is called a mount) to a shared folder/drive on the same network. For folders on Windows machines, use 'SAMBA'.

4. Go into File Manager and copy files to and from your device.

Pretty easy if you ask me.

Dukto itself is not available for maemo, nor is there anything that works in the same way (aside from the technical, complicated and incomplete suggestions already made).

You haven't described any further examples of how you want to transfer files, other than to refer to dukto again.

So unfortunately, the answer is "no", there is no application that does what you want.

Perhaps you could contact the dukto author and see if they are interested in porting their app to maemo - they have most other platforms covered.

Failing that you may have to learn something new.

richard.lawry
2010-12-14, 11:56
in simple words.....
just like we get options for sending as
send via bluetooth
send via MMS
send via infrared

I want extra one more option

send via wifi

and the other wifi enabled device when searches for available wlan
it should get connected with my device and recieve that file.


I hope you understood that.....

Well so far I am so glad you guys are trying to help me as far as you can.....really the maemo community rocks.

Thanks for the info Richard, I am not aware of any app that does this.

Well Paulkon..... you might know the new technology called "Wifi Direct" which breaks the limitation of wifi being only used for searching wlan and get connected.... If that thing comes on to maemo its really gonna rock.

Thanks anyway

According to the project page (http://www.msec.it/blog/?page_id=11), Dukto is open source and written in Qt. should be easy to port for Maemo.

i'll give it a try later today.

Hello!

I'm the author of Dukto, I'd like to develop a version for Maemo/Meego, but actually I don't own a Maemo device, so I'm very limited in developing and testing.

If in the future I'll be able to work on a Maemo or Meego device I'll absolutely port Dukto to these platforms.

there you go.

thanks to Qt, all i had to do was 'svn checkout' the symbian sources and fix one tiny typo (dukto.png should be with a capital D in resources/, linux is case-sensitive ;) ), and it compiles and runs almost perfectly.

it's even hildonized and everything, without a single touch. i'm really impressed by Qt's cross compatibility at this point - i only experimented inside a maemo env up until now.
the only two things that don't seem to work properly are:
*) sending text from maemo (the reason for this is that you cannot access the title bar while a dialogue is open - but that's easily fixed by adding a button there)
*) canceling a file transfer.

i could create a package in extras, but since the current authors already have an ovi store presence, i suggest to contact them to simply make it avaliable for the N900 as well. all they have to do is install the Nokia Qt SDK under linux for testing/compiling, fix the "sending text" - buttons and canceling, and flip some checkbox in their dukto ovi app preferences as i imagine.

in the meanwhile, here's the binary i compiled straight from the source at google.com with the above mentioned single change.

put it somewhere in /home/user or /opt (NOT in MyDocs) and make it executable by "chmod +x Dukto". then run by calling it via XTerm. or create a .desktop file for it.

Unzip it and copy it to your MyDocs folder.
you can start it from the terminal like this : sudo ./Dukto

that's built from the Desktop UI, isn't it?

i tried that too at first, but had better luck with the symbian branch, whis is a bit more finger-friendly.

Yeah its from the default read only trunk.
It looks different than yours, I think I like the way your title menu works better.

It's interesting though if you run either of them with sudo you get qt menus instead of the hildon stuff.

Have to be careful with the qt style file menu as its so easy to accidently move folders all around.

This is a cool program for sure. We need a file selector as we can't drag and drop files into Dukto. (You could always use Easy Debian and do it I suppose.)

the hildon file selector works, though only for single files. shouldn't be too much work to make it multi-selection ;)

and yes, should work fine under ED also.

did you set the receiving folder to something tangible? i didn't change the default... :) after that, it works. at least for me.
the change button works, "open" should be connected to osso-filemanager.

i have to go now, feel free if you have the time ;)

I have purchased N900 just 2 weeks back, thats why I am totally new to use XTerm.... A step by step information as if how to install the attachment that you provided will be great for me.
Apart from it this community is really so helpful..... and I would really like to thank you for putting extra effort to make it work on maemo.
And HieiJ, I hope u will provide it as christmas gift for maemo in OVI.

download the file and put it on your N900's memory.
then start XTerm and execute these commands:
cd /home/user/MyDocs
tar -xzvf Dukto.tar.gz
cp Dukto /home/user
chmod +x /home/user/Dukto

then you can start the program by typing
/home/user/Dukto

are we likily to see this packaged and in the repo's soon? with the couple of small fixes needed it could be done today i'm guessing, but i've heard the ovi qa process can take weeks if not months. imd rather use a deb but if its a lengthy wait i'll take it as is. (i'm not THAT impatient, but due to the usb port issue i just got a replacement n900 the other day and have looooads of stuff to get off my old pc in the corner.)

make sure the downloaded file is in MyDocs (main n900 memory) not in a folder, OR amend the command to point to wherever u saved the file to.

What do you mean by wrap a UI? You mean to start it? I personally have it setup as an alias in the terminal. But there's nothing stopping you from putting it as a Queen Beecon Widget, shortcutd, etc..

I then just use the personal IP address to figure out my IP. Alternatively if you have a service that resolves your external IP to a domain name, then you can just go to that one.I personally prefer using this since all you need for anyone to upload a file is a web browser.

Okay, sorry I wasn't clearer, my bad.

Given, starting it with a desktop icon is not too difficult, using a tool such as QBW. But from what I can tell you need to specify a file, and there are user option switches at the command line too (compression type, IP, Port etc.). It would be nice if the python script downloadable via http://www.home.unix-ag.org/simon/woof.html could be "part of" an installable application. Such an application would have a user interface, which would allow you to browse to a file, set the port and IP numbers, specify compression method etc.

Hope this makes sense now, not sure how much clearer I can be.

maemo mounts Mydocs with the noexec option by default. Executable files should be kept in /home/user, /usr/local/bin or some similar place.

and you were right ;)
(edit: not in Extras, though. it's available on ovi already so i'm not going to upload it to Extras.)

i have had trouble tracking down a sporadic segfault when receiving multiple files (probably the error zappa reported, i didn't notice it earlier).

therefore i went back to the desktop build, which runs much more stable (as in "hasn't crashed once yet"). i have now rearranged it's layout so it plays more nicely with maemo's hildonization.

any feedback welcome. i'm particularly interested if the layout works for everyone and if anybody experiences crashes when receiving multiple files...

i have attached the .deb file QtCreator spit out, and i even added a .desktop file (icon doesn't work yet though *g*)...
don't have any more time today, so for the moment you'll have to live without icon (unless Veleno repackages it properly ;) ).
oh, and without sending multiple files - haven't had a chance to look at that, either...

but everything else works well now ;)
will send my changes to Emanuele so he can integrate them and upload to ovi store.

well you have to have it running on a second host as well. then you can transfer files between them. its name should show in the "buddies" list if both are on the same subnet (wifi, doubt 3g will work).

So, this is like OBEX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OBject_EXchange) over WLAN, but does it actually use OBEX standard?

Clipboard-endpoints (http://maemo.org/community/brainstorm/view/clipboard_sharing_over_bluetooth/) would be nice extra app someone could develop over this. So one could choose BT, WLAN or IR to send clipboard content back and forth, and in both ends would be this clipboard-servent (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servent) doing the top level communication with the system clipboard. It has been talked before also in talk.maemo.org (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=47923).

if you get "permission denied", the executable flag probably wasn't set correctly... in that case,
sudo gainroot
chmod +x /opt/dukto/Dukto

i tested it a few times and was quite sure i had this covered, but i don't have a "clean" N900 to verify it on :)

maybe i ought to create the package within scratchbox instead of QtCreator...

yes tried this and got permission denied so i have done what you said, but what then, when i try to run again via xTerm i get same permission denied ?

what's the output of
ls -l /opt/dukto/Dukto

watch out, it's case sensitive! the folder is with a small "d", the binary itself with a capital "D".

Is it also possible to add Buddies to the list?

this list gets filled automatically with every machine running an instance of dukto on your subnet.

if you start dukto on your PC, and it's on the same subnet as your N900, it will show up there.

you didn't execute the chmod command correctly, the permissions should read
-rwx-r-x-r-x

maybe you made a typo somewhere when running chmod?

i'll upload a fixed package later today (or perhaps tomorrow).

that's strange...
does it run when you start it via XTerm?
/opt/dukto/Dukto

if you get "permission denied", the executable flag probably wasn't set correctly... in that case,
chmod +x /opt/dukto/Dukto
should do the trick.

That worked. Had to run chmod +x /opt/dukto/Dukto as root though. Now it is working. Thanks.

Tried it out. Works great. Except I cannot see how to send multiple files. Is there a way to do so (or to send a folder)?

Want to use to backup my conboy notes to PC and send them back after editing on PC instead of WinScp because WinSCP locks files as user so I am unable to edit them on PC when I receive them back to my N900.

I've had my N900 since early 2010 and only discovered this today.

PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW! :D

But seriously, uploading the package to extras-devel would be awesome.
Probably it would be used a lot more if people knew about it.

Try WinSCP . install on your pc and install SSH on your N900. It works very good for me ...

If anyone can port this app to N9, it will be a perfect wi-fi communication/file-transfer medium between all the most used OSs nowadays like symbian, windows ,linux, iOS, mac, android and blackberry including maemo. Only meego is left. :confused:

Yes, i have read, thanks for a great solution. But everyone is not comfortable with command lines. i.e. my gf.. :)

Using an app with gui is much faster and convenient solution imo. And setting up sftp with every os is different procedure i guess.

Use WinSCP (http://winscp.net/eng/index.php) then.

Thanks for this "dukto"!

This version works in N900:

dukto works fine in N900 together with Android and Linux. I like it, as I was looking for something like KDEconnect for the N900.

Other command line solutions like sshfs scp or the like are good for larger file transfers. But, I was looking for sending small text snippets of the stuff I place into the clipboard.
