Hi All, Thought I would ask some thoughts about how to go about the following.
I have recently built a fresh CentOS server install that I intend to install OpenLDAP on & act as a PDC. Similar to a Windows Servers with users authenticating against AD. I also have a DNS-323 NAS that currently has 2 x 2TB drives in a mirror that I am storing data on & backing up manually. I was thinking of installing OwnCloud on the server with the NAS being the repository for the data. I then want to be able to access data via smartphones or remotely (i.e. web, desktop OS, etc.). I would also like to set up some sort of synching mechanisms between the various clients (i.e. smartphone, laptop, etc.) so that for example I am out somewhere working on something...I come home & the data is moved to the NAS & the drives (Librari, Media, etc.) on the NAS mount for access. Eventually I am planning to have what I am hoping will be a live synching backup to anther disk in the house & an on demand backup of the backup that will be taken offsite & doen every week or so. I have been looking around & I don't think I have found the right information yet, bit I am wondering if I am on the right track. My thinking is that is should be as simple as installing OC on the CentOS box & then point it towards the NAS. Am I on the right track or do I need to isntall OC on the NAS itself as suggested by the following article: https://panmen.wordpress.com/2013/01/01/installing-owncloud-to-a-dns-320-nas/ I can see the end goal of what I want to do...but what I am having troubles with is envisioning the proper steps in the proper order. Any ideas or suggestions...specific steps....etc. And just to make things interesting....any ideas about encrytion in relatin to this whole thing. Should I be encrypting the NAS, the backup & the external. If so...suggestions for tools (for exmaple TrueCrypt)?
