Does Duplicate Finder run on Linux systems?
No, but even though Duplicate Finder is not yet available on the Linux platform, you can use Samba on the Linux system to give Windows workstations access to the files kept on Linux boxes. Simply map folders as drives on a PC workstation or use UNC path for folder to search. That way, you can find duplicate files on Linux systems, and delete or move them as you would on a PC. Keep in mind that you need proper access rights in order to scan files (read access) and to delete them (write access). Since Linux file names are case sensitive but on Windows they are not, performance may not be as good, since more files will be checked. Also, always use CRC checksums due to the different case sensitivity.
