all messages can be saved.Īlthough BeeBEEP is easy to install and set up and also simple to use, it’s not a basic communications tool – it provides a wide range of features as well as customization options.

It supports offline messages, meaning messages will be delivered to offline users when they come online.

It even lets you send or share your files and folders by drag-and-drop.

You can also create your favourite group of people.

It allows you to chat with all people connected – group or single user.

The encryption it provides is based on Rijndael Algorithm (AES).

In addition to text messages, you can also easily send files to others, something which you can do by clicking the send file icon present at the bottom (just left of the save icon). Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install BeeBEEP. Now you can just select the user you want to communicate with and start chatting. Once that is done, you’ll see all the users whom you can talk to listed towards the right-hand side of the BeeBEEP window (in my case the only other node connected to the network was my laptop with user name Himanshu-laptop). However, to start communicating you’ll need to install and set up BeeBEEP on other computers on the LAN. Once you are done with the above step, the setup is almost complete. Should you choose the latter, you’ll have to provide a password. Next you’ll be given an option to choose between a standard session (encrypted but no authentication) and a password protected session (both encrypted and password protected). Once the “beebeep” executable runs successfully, you’ll first be prompted to choose a username for yourself – BeeBEEP chooses a default name, but of course you can change it to any name you like. This should solve the problem, allowing BeeBEEP to execute properly. Sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd1
