croc is a tool that allows any two computers to simply and securely transfer files and folders.
https://schollz.com/tinker/croc6/
- allows any two computers to transfer data (using a relay)
- provides end-to-end encryption (using PAKE)
- enables easy cross-platform transfers (Windows, Linux, Mac)
- allows multiple file transfers
- allows resuming transfers that are interrupted
- local server or port-forwarding not needed
- ipv6-first with ipv4 fallback
- can use proxy, like tor
Another thing like that I wish I'd discover sooner is syncthing - it's really intuitive, just point it to a folder and it syncs stuff across your devices automatically. With it, a lot of cloud storage, backup and file transfer applications and features are completely redundant.
EDIT: Ah, I did not scroll far enough to see that this recommendation is literally the next comment from this.
I am by no means a star whore, but 26.4k stars on git?!? And I’ve never heard of it. Mind blown. Thanks for the suggestion!
I've been trying to do this with scp between two computers running ssh on ports that are not 22
Croc just requires each computer to have internet access.
