Yes, syncthing has its own Web-Gui.

The docs from syncthing are pretty good. Just read about what you need to know: https://docs.syncthing.net/intro/getting-started.html

Hi,

I am using the syncthing Plugin from the OMV Extra Repo. I have my Windows PC with Syncthing and my little OMV-Box also with synthing. Everytime I boot up my Windows-PC, all my Files are synced as a backup.

Okay .... I would say, my Way of cutting out the Metalframe was not 100% right, but at least I can still close the case. But "THAT" looks just wrong.

I think in the WebGUI is a setting, what should happen then you press the powerbutton. (Shutdown, Nothing or Sleep). Did you set that to "Shutdown"?

Arbeite dich doch für den Anfang mal durch folgenden Thread:

I had the same issues with may 1und1 account:

You dont need a Domain to manage multiple users an have them only access their own files. Just create every user under omv and let them use their homedrives.

But if you still want a domain, where are some issues you have to manage:

• What you want is a so called "Active Directory", I would not recommend an older NT4 Domain.
• Not all Windows Versions can connect to a domain, the so called "Home Editions" are not able to.

You can read through the following guides, so maybe you know al little bit more:

https://wiki.samba.org/index.p…rectory_Domain_Controller

If you are using the Plex Media Server, you can access your Media from anythere outside your network with no need for setting up an vpn.

I dont have the temperature from my OMV-FX160, but I am also using another FX160 as a little Firewall with IPFire. And from there I have this RRD Graphs.

Hello,

I would recommend the following Steps:

• enable SSH
• log into your OMV Box
• then simply follow these steps: http://msmhq.com/docs/installation.html

The Minecraft Server Manager is a simply but powerful tool for managing a Minecraft Server.

Since my Dell Optiplex FX160 has a uptime over 100 days now, I want to give you a little summary. Mostly by screenshots. If you have any questions, just write them in this post.

I have 3 CIFS Shares, for my music, my photos and my videos. All 3 shares are synced via syncthing with my Windows PC as backup. The Plex Server does a good job and I connect to it from 3 Android devices and my FireTV.

I installed omv on a 2GB small Flashcard. I am running plex, syncthing and some other services and it works pretty well.

Thanks for that tip. Works perfect.

Hello,

I was reading trough the syncthing docs and would like to change the home-directory (where the syncthing index is stored) to my data-drive.

What would be the best way to do this'? Edit the file under /usr/share/openmediavault/mkconf/syncthing ? Or use a symlink?

Maybe if there are some other people who would find this useful, someday this could be an option in the webgui.

Hi,

You can simply setup a SMB/CIFS-Share and then connect from your mac to that share.

Read more at :http://www.american.edu/oit/network/CIFS-For-Mac.cfm

You can see the diffences here. Look under Formats.

I have a normal FireTV and that works fine without transcoding. I have Kodi installed on the FireTV but I dont really use it anymore since I have my plex-Server. You can also use your FireTV as a really nice console emulator: http://www.libretro.com/

Yes, syncthing looked also really good, but my boot-device is only 2GB large, and the "file index" from syncthing was stored in the users home-directory and used all available space. Maybe if the syncthing-plugin has in the future the option to store the index on the data-drive, I will switch back to syncthing. I know that I could have used hardlinks.

Thank you for your answer, but robocopy ist not what I am looking for. (missing bi-directional sync)

I found Dsynchronize today, looks a tiny bit "rusty", but has most of the things I was looking for ..

Hello everybody,

I am looking for a solution to syncronize the Data stored on my omv-NAS to my Windows Desktop PC and vice versa without a user logged in.

I already tested a massive amount of software and I am still not really satisfied.

Here is my wishlist

- runs stable as a windows service
- no need for a logged in user
- two way synchronisation
- Open Source
- kiss

Here is what I try to avoid:

- Scripts
- Java
- some crude workarounds

Please share your thoughts and experiences. Thank you.

Quote from Eryan

Zitat von deecon: „I use the same System (samba, plex, dlna), just with a 500GB HDD. You can simple install omv on the 2GB Flash Module and the use the &quot;Flash Memory&quot; Plugin from the omv extra repo.“
How long have you being using OMV installed in the…

I am using omv for about 3 months now on the 2GB Flash Module. But I installed the Flash Memory Plugin form the omv extra repo, simply to extend the lifetime and to limit the disk i/o on the Flash Module. The only issue is that 2GB are not "that" much space. I was trying out syncthing, but the plugin wrote the "file database" in my home directory and all my free space was gone. With ssh, plex, cifs and some small plugins I still have about 500MB free diskspace.

Probably, but I dont want to wait any longer.
