Nextcloud vs syncthing5/18/2023 All I do remember is that I had to give up on the idea above. Syncthing perhaps not sure how to handle files in NC? It was a while ago and try as I might I could not find my notes on this. If I remember correctly I had issues with permissions, NC and SyncThing getting confused about versioning and the NC marinadb getting very confused how to make sense of the syncthing metadata as well as vice versa. I wonder if anyone has attempted this with success? What are the things to watch out for? ![]() Perhaps I still do not grasp those things well. I was not as skilled as a linux sys admin back then and probably didn’t understand a permissions issue or some other thing metadata issue. Now I recall that I tried to do something like this back on NC 14, which was the last time I used NC with any regularity. Is Syncthing (the tool I already have used for many years) a possible way? I would also like those with accounts on my NC to be able to UL their own data and have it sync to my devices. I would like them also in folders on NC so I can share data via links and manage permissions to links, teams, etc. Most of my files are created on my devices and automatically synced to TrueNAS. Before I do attempt?ĭear Forum users, I would like to sync data from SyncThing to NC data folders on internal storage of my dell server running XCP-NG. Syncthing is not yet installed on this server. I have automatic backups from XCP-NG NC VM > TrueNAS dataset for redundancy. I used Jay’s (Learn linux TV) guide recently released to set it up. It runs VM of Ubuntu 22.04 with nextcloud. I decided to install a nextcloud instance and virtual disk on my XCP-NG server. I Sync to my TrueNAS as my main system file storage. I watch the videos often and have an entire home lab based on many of the suggestions in the videos. Let me thank you all, and particularly Tom for all the help. Any help will be much appreciated.I am perhaps Continuing the discussion from Sync files nextcloud with a pool on truenas?: I apologize for the long post, but I'm in a real bind here. Someone suggested to use Nextcloud or Syncthing, but they are not what I'm looking for (according to my understanding).ġ- Syncthing works off of a peer-to-peer architecture rather than a client-server architecture.Ģ- NextCloud, from what I get, offers cloud storage for myself. However, I need to host my own cloud service. ![]() Most of the courses I've found so far teach about Amazon, Google, etc. So far, I've searched about cloud storage, folder sizing, thin provisioning, public cloud, private cloud, etc. And I don't think that can be done in directories (correct me if I'm wrong). I also need to use the free storage (that the user is not using) to allocate to other users. But that's where I found my first stumbling block: how to assign a size limit to a folder? The site then sends the userId, password, plan information to my Cloud Server, where I can assign storage to him.Īt first, I thought to solve the problem with a root folder, where each new user will have a folder of his own. Some of what I have in my mind: I develop a website where users purchase a plan of say 10 GB. ![]() How does Google Drive or Dropbox work in the background? Do they create a folder directory or a disk drive partition for each user? Some additional points to better understand the problem: What resources and articles, along with the required skills, can I use? Or is there a software like WordPress is for websites? I need to understand how they work in the back end, or how they’re developed, or how can I build my solution using a server, where I can thin provision my hard drive, let users see their data, etc. My problem is that I need to build a cloud storage for my customers/clients/users, who can log in to my Cloud Storage Service.
