My goal was pretty simple. Setup a central storage on a Raspberry Pi device, so we could exchange files at home without using the cloud or skype. It wasn't so hard to setup and I do recommend it to everyone that can spare some time and effort into doing this.
List of goals:
- Central storage to place and exchange files.
- Accessible from desktop and mobile devices.
- Available only on the internal network.
- User/Password protected.
Initially I wanted to install a dedicated cloud or storage solution on my Raspberry Pi device. However, I found out it was much more simple and intuitive to do this with a samba configuration.
