<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Would anyone like to volunteer suggestions for a utility that searches a filesystem for duplicate files? I&#39;m running Ubuntu 10.04 on my server, and I&#39;m sure I have lots of duplication, which I&#39;d like to get rid of. I&#39;m interested in both CLI and GUI solutions.<div>
