Cloud services

Postby wd9895 » Sun Aug 26, 2012 6:15 pm

In the actual c't magazine 19-2012 there's a report how to install private cloud services on a QNAP NAS.
Do you think it's possible to add such services on the Lacie NS2 as I don't trust any of those Dropbox stuff ?

Unfortunately I have not that level of knowledge to do it on my own.

sorry wd9895 :dontknow I don't have the knowledge myself. Maybe Jocko has some comments. In the other case we just have to start to look at and build up the necessary knowledge :-D

After IFA I can scan the pages how to do if you are able to read german ?
It's a cloud server which can be installed on a Linux system just like the QNAP NAS. Everything is described in the article.

Hi wd9895,

Thanks for scanning the howtodo about owncloud apply. I found also a french site and it confirms my opinion.

On the french site, I read this (google translation):
Code: Select all
If you want to build your own cloud server, a bit like Dropbox, but on your own server, just to retain ownership of your data, there are more and more interesting solutions. The last I discovered yesterday morning called OwnCloud. This is an app PHP, which coupled with Apache + MySQL allows you to upload and synchronize files between multiple computers, or through the web interface, or via client or WebDAV.

This means that a server OwnCloud is accessible from any OS (Linux, Win, Mac, etc.), but also via mobile apps as Android client in development or on the WebDav Client iPhone. What is nice with OwnCloud is that the music can be listened in streaming, like with Subsonic, but the application can manage a calendar and contacts can be synchronized on all clients supporting CardDAV / CalDAV such as Kontact, Evolution or Thunderbird.


In the next release, a WebDav server will be available. So, the "ownCloud" server could be useful only for :
using a streaming,
handling a calendar or your contacts.

About streaming, I think there is already much streaming servers with the current firmware.

In http://owncloud.org/support/install/ I read that php 5.3 is required and Fvdw should recompile php (he will be happy... :whistle ). So much work for few benefits with the next release (WebDav server).

But I think we can try to install this feature if we must upgrade php for other applications (seem easy to do it)

Hello guys,

sorry to pull out the old thread but I am just thinking about my personal OwnCloud options and since I am owner of a NWS2 Classic I am considering fvdw with an OwnCloud installation. Has anyone tried that in the meantime? Will the performance of my NWS2 suffice to run OwnCloud?

Currently, you can not use an auto-install php script (some dependencies are missing to unzip files).

I will try to install it manually

I installed ownCloud but one php module is missing : module zip.

So you need to wait a little.

Would it be possible to manually install php with the required module included? Or could I use a repository manager like apt-get or something? It would be really awesome to have ownCloud running on the NAS, can't wait that long ;)
