how to install and configure syncthing
I ran a long time Nextcloud server which works as a backup server, but it got an issue syncing larger video files. So let's try Syncthing for a backup solution, installation is easy, and configuration simple. But Syncthing won't able to show content like nextcloud.
Commands:
sudo apt-get install curl apt-transport-https ca-certificates
sudo curl -s -o /usr/share/keyrings/syncthing-archive-keyring.gpg https://syncthing.net/release-key.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/syncthing-archive-keyring.gpg] https://apt.syncthing.net/ syncthing stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/syncthing.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install syncthing
systemctl enable [email protected]
systemctl start [email protected]
systemctl status [email protected]
sudo ufw allow 22000/tcp
sudo ufw allow 80/tcp
sudo ufw allow 443/tcp
sudo ufw allow 8384/tcp
sudo apt install nginx
sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/syncthing.conf
sudo nginx -t
sudo systemctl reload nginx
Nginx configure:
server {
listen 80;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri:8384;
}
server {
listen 443;
server_name server-dns;

}
