rfalcon Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Alex, I know its a shot in the dark, but can you make a personal cloud app for whs2011? Something to act like dropbox. Instant camera uploads and all. Just a thought, or maybe a dream. Tardas-Zib and Alex 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 There is something already out there: OwnCloud. It requires PHP and mySQL, but it works. I'm not sure if the app does instant uploads yet (it didn't a year ago, IIRC), but otherwise, it works pretty darn well. And if you want detailed instructions.... We Got Served has that. The "25 Essential Projects for Windows Home Server" volume 1 covers how to isntall PHP and mySQL (.... it's as easy as installing the Web Platform Installer, and checking a few boxes). The "25 Essential Projects for WHS volume 2" covers OwnCloud though. (caveat: I co-wrote the second book, and do get revenue off of it).

0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 You're welcome. I haven't kept up with OwnCloud in a while, but it was pretty good last year. I'm sure it's gotten better since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
