I’ve got a server, a friends got a server, what’s the best way to share stuff between the two?
Get 'em in the same room together, put on some Barry White, and let the magic happen.
Rsync
If you’re wanting to share all files, many of the methods already mentioned work well. If you’re wanting to share specific files, CopyParty is a good way to go.
The documentation gives me yt-dlp PTSD 😶
Absolutely this OP. Have a quick watch of the feature showcase video and you will see just how perfect this is for your needs
Yeah this right here looks exactly what I was looking for.
Been transferring files for sometime over a Wireguard connection, but it’s a bit of a pain to use so I’ve been looking for something better.
Appreciate the tip @mike_wooskey@lemmy.thewooskeys.com
We use Tailscale to share between accounts.
But for large transfers I use an encrypted HDD.
Exposing it over HTTP ensures all can access, but that’s my best solution. I don’t know what your intentions are, or what your pain-points are, or what you’re willing to deal with, or what your data is and if it poses a risk to you personally to have it exposed.
LAN party!! You have the optimal excuse to make one happen ;)
May as well crack out DC++ and start heading your files.
Define share?
Keep all files in sync between two points?
Enable ad-hoc access to all files, or a subset?
SFTP or WebDAV would work.
Yeah, forwarding a port to a server with SFTP allows you both to have two-way links. Have done this with some of my friends as well.
Sneakernet via a HDD is also damn helpful for initial bulk transfers.
You can’t beat the bandwidth and reliabilty of mailed ssd’s
If you want to run a mirror, rsync over ssh is one of the simplest ways.
SFTP or FTPS with FXP
FXP
Oh wow, there’s a name I ain’t heard in a while.
You could also set up a jellyfin (for media) or gameyfin (for games) container, expose that to the internet and give them credentials.
You could do tailscale shared nodes and share just your jellyfin servers that way.
croc is not bad:
Just a feeling I get, but open directories and hoarders are going to become more popular.
