Re: [PLUG] Personal Cloud Server

I would highly recommend OwnCloud or NextCloud for this. They're open source projects which essentially give you a self-hosted file server similar to Google Drive, Box, Dropbox, etc. They even support real-time collaboration and federation between other users so you could share files among them.

Like Will said, will simply need to port forward and use dynamic dns to get to it.

Dynamic dns to a port forward on your router to an ARM board hooked up to a drive doc. Works great for me for over half a decade.

I've been using the shared files from DWSAgent, but it's just too slow
as a file server.

Has anybody instituted their own cloud server?

Mine would have to be smart enough to recognize the NAT'd server behind
my FiOS account.

Suggestions greatly appreciated!
