Timbuktu is not a file-sharing program, although it does have file-transfer
capabilities.  What it does is enable one Mac to display another Mac's
screen, use the other Mac's programs, search through files, etc.

It's handy groupware -- support, instruction, etc.  It works over AppleTalk
and there's a version, Timbuktu/Remote, that works over modem.
