The simple but powerful Timbuktu Pro interface provides you with the following Timbuktu Pro Services.
Send lets you send messages with attached files and folders to a remote computer.
Exchange lets you access the hard drive of a remote Timbuktu Pro computer—even a Macintosh. You can copy and move files and folders between computers and delete files from either computer.
Control lets you control a remote computer from your own desktop.
Observe lets you observe a remote computer without controlling it.
Notify alerts you when a remote Timbuktu Pro computer becomes active.
Chat lets you carry on a keyboard conversation with a remote user.
Intercom lets you speak directly to a remote user through your computer’s audio hardware.
Invite allows you to invite other users to access your computer using the Timbuktu Pro service you specify.
Connecting to Remote Computers
Timbuktu Pro allows you to connect directly to other computers on your TCP/IP network using the TCP/IP tab in the main Timbuktu Pro window. Or use the Timbuktu Pro Scanner to search your network for other Timbuktu Pro computers.
Other tabs in the main Timbuktu Pro window also help you find and connect to other computers. The Dial Direct tab lets you use your modem to dial directly into the modem of another computer, with no network connection required. Use the Address Books tab to connect to other computers using saved addresses. The LDAP tab lets you search for other computers using criteria other than their IP addresses, and the Recent Connections tab saves previous connections.
