udpcast is a file transfer tool that can send data simultaneously to many destinations on a LAN. It is an alternative to uftp which is already in meta-networking. On a lossy network, udpcast provided 10x faster transfer rates with error correction enabled while using a half as much CPU thanks to a simpler algorithm. Signed-off-by: Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com>

SUMMARY = "UDP broadcast file distribution and installation"

DESCRIPTION = "UDPcast is a file transfer tool that can send data \
|
|
simultaneously to many destinations on a LAN. This can for instance be \
|
|
used to install entire classrooms of PC's at once. The advantage of UDPcast \
|
|
over using other methods (nfs, ftp, whatever) is that UDPcast uses UDP's \
|
|
multicast abilities: it won't take longer to install 15 machines than it would \
|
|
to install just 2."
