I guess that’s what I haven’t figured out yet - it’s about 200’ and I don’t have 200’ of wire laying around. I’m thinking of making dummy terminations for each end of my cat6 cable and stripping each of the pairs and twisting them together so it works as a single conductor and using that to measure.
a Gaia?
It’s a 200’ cable and the buildings each have their own connection to the power company. I suspect that the earth potential of the two buildings is quite different - I just have not figured out a way to measure it yet and not sure if there’s anything I can do to fix it even if I do confirm it.
I already have a pair of Ubiquiti airMax GigaBeams left over from a different project and agree - they perform incredibly well. I didn’t even bother aligning mine as they did 800Mbit/s just pointed in the right general direction. A trench was being dug to the studio for another reason and cable is relatively cheap so I figured I’d drop one in. Hasn’t turned out as well as I hoped. I will setup the GigaBeams one day - but the cable does occasionally sync at 1Gbps and I’m hoping that one day it just stays there :-)
As someone who grew up with 10Base2 and 10BaseT, and thought 100Mbps was amazing - it still surprises me every time I’m reminded how slow it is now. I buried a cat6 cable out to my wife’s studio and due to (I assume) some grounding issues it only syncs at 100Mbps - it works for general browsing etc., but every time we try to move some data it’s arggghhh.
I hate organised religion too, and I get what you’re saying but, like it or not, the pope is a world leader with a lot of influence - if he can use that influence to reduce the fighting (even if with selfish motives) then that’s a good thing.
I totally agree, and I just switched from Windows to Linux for my desktop, but this isn’t on Microsoft - it’s sanctions on the ICC by the fascist regime running the country where they (Microsoft) are based in support of the fascist regime destroying Gaza. (I know I’m probably over simplifying it, but that’s my take on the article)
It’s a little different, but works. I was in business operations for the last 20 years and relatively proficient with Excel. I’m retired now but I’m treasurer for a small community non profit organization. I recently switched to Linux desktop and found Calc handled my sheets with pivots etc. just fine. About the only thing I’m missing is End-Arrow to move to the last populated cell in a row or column, but not missing it so much that I’ve tried to figure out how to do it in Calc - yet.
simple webdav server that’s compatible with the Nextcloud sync clients
Now THAT is interesting - when I was last experimenting with Nextcloud I learned that the files part is just a webdav server. Unfortunately I also learned that they have a bit of a handshake before the webdav so the client wouldn’t work with my apache2 webdav server. Thanks!
That seems to be the case. Really sucks that the documentation at nextcloud.com directs people to the AIO. I guess they hope that if you have a bad time trying to install your own server you might buy their cloud service.
Yeah, I can see how someone that has “grown up with it” could be happy. But as and experienced sysadmin coming at it for the first time - the documentation is a bit lacking.
Because an android client is one of my requirements. I can get files from SMB on Android using any number of file managers, but I can’t map a SMB share to a filesystem so files are available for an app to use.
Yes! There used to be a little utility that could map a SMB share in Android, but that got killed years ago.
So, use something else
That’s why I’m here - looking for suggestions
like Seafile.
I’ll have another look - you’re not the only person to suggest it. My recollection is that it seemed to be old and not really maintained.
I’ve never used the AIO image. I’ve heard it’s weird.
It does seem to be. So, I find it weird that the “core” documentation leads a new user to installing AIO.
You could also try OpenCloud, which is a Go rewrite of ownCloud.
Sounds interesting - thanks.
You need to understand the difference between a docker run command, and detaching to run a container in the background. Just running it with ‘run’ keeps it in the foreground.
Yes, I understand this. I was just highlighting that it’s not a great experience for a new user to follow the instructions to setup a server and be left with it running in the foreground.
For the passphrase issue: https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/discussions/1786
Thanks! This should get me past my current hurdle so I can do some more testing. Again - not a great experience to have to come to a forum to get help to find a passphrase. I’m pretty sure I didn’t miss any steps?
Lastly, if you’re not familiar with containers, and this is a single purpose machine, you’d be better off just running the bare project on the host. If there’s no need for containerization, just skip it.
I’m familiar with containers, but think they’re overused. Stupid little things that are a single Python script (for example) shipping as a Docker image! But, I thought Nextcloud was complex enough to be worthy of a container? This is not a single purpose machine, but I’m an old, retired, sysadmin - I have no problem running a few different servers on the same host.
Are you referring to the “Archive” Community Project installation method?
Use docker or podman compose https://hub.docker.com/_/nextcloud/
I could do that - I guess I was just pointing out that someone coming to Nextcloud and following the install instructions does not have a great experience.
Nextcloud does not need a domain. Ip is fine.
So, their documentation is wrong?
Again - not a great experience for a first time user.
And the people of the USA are not the US government and yet I’m boycotting all US products. I feel really bad about it sometimes because some US products I’m no longer buying come from small, ethical (on paper at least) employee owned companies. But as someone who is not in the US, this is the only action I can take in response to the US government.
If people from Israel would like to holiday in the Maldives then they have a bit of work to do. Step 1 is to overthrow their fascist government.
Mark my words, Trump will not let go gently come 2029.
That’s the most depressing thing I’ve read for a long time. Even in the best case scenario we’re stuck with this bullshit until twenty twenty fucking nine!!
It’s pre terminated pure copper direct burial cat6 from Amazon. I don’t have access to a real tester, but my cisco switch has some built in test capability and I’m not sure I fully understand the results, but it’s assessment of the cable length is pretty close and, more importantly, it shows all the pairs are the same as each other. I think that if there was some damage to the cable, it’s unlikely that it would affect all the pairs in exactly the same way. I have other weird grounding issues - like 20V between neutral and ground, even though it’s a new house and they’re properly bonded at the service entry. I had a really old transformer on the street feeding the two buildings and the power company recently replaced it - I was disappointed when this didn’t resolve all my issues.
