DEPRECATED
jdupes and jdupes-gui in Docker optimized for Unraid
jdupes is a command line program for identifying and taking actions upon duplicate files combined with jdupes-gui it becomes a usefull tool for identifying duplicated files on your server.
A WORD OF WARNING: jdupes IS NOT a drop-in compatible replacement for fdupes!
ATTENTION: A minor inconvenience is caused by the fact that the jdupes-gui script is single-threaded. This causes the application to seemingly hang when running long jobs like searching through large folders or deleting large batches of files. Please be patient, it is still working.
WARNING: Please always double check what you are deleting in the containers since this affects the files on your Server and you won't be able to recover them!!!

Set VNC Password:
Please be sure to create the password first inside the container, to do that open up a console from the container (Unraid: In the Docker tab click on the container icon and on 'Console' then type in the following):
- su $USER
- vncpasswd
- ENTER YOUR PASSWORD TWO TIMES AND PRESS ENTER AND SAY NO WHEN IT ASKS FOR VIEW ACCESS
Unraid: close the console, edit the template and create a variable with the Key: TURBOVNC_PARAMS and leave the Value empty, click Add and Apply.
All other platforms running Docker: create a environment variable TURBOVNC_PARAMS that is empty or simply leave it empty:
--env 'TURBOVNC_PARAMS='
This Docker was mainly edited for better use with Unraid, if you don't use Unraid you should definitely try it!
