Advice on direct file sharing?

Featured Replies

I can't believe it but I've hit a brick wall with what seems to be a simple issue. I want to setup an easy and quick way to transfer files back and forth over the web with a friend. Now, I know FTP is the tried and true solution but I assumed something newer and better would have appeared by now to take it's place. Struggling to find such a solution.

 

Requirements:

 

Encrypted

Decently fast (yes, I know the above requirement impacts that)

Secure (FTP and SFTP don't have the best track record there)

Easy, ideally the person on the other end doesn't need to possess any special skills

Capable of transferring large files up to 15 GB

 

Can anyone point me toward something suitable that fits into the Unraid world easily?

 

Thanks!

Nextcloud docker.

 

It's not particularly quick and easy to set up, but works well once you get it running.

 

There are other options, but that's the one I landed on and personally use.

Nextcloud is a fork of Owncloud right? I looked into owncloud and was concerned about large files sizes. Any trouble with that?

There does not seem to be a problem as long as you have the nextCloud client software installed (and it is allowed in the admin settings for the user concerned).  There IS a limitation if you try to download large files using a browser but that is due to browser limitations I believe and does not affect the nextCloud clients.
