Syncloud is a free and open-source platform that allows you to host your own cloud server at home or in the office. It provides you with the ability to access, store, and share your data from anywhere in the world.
This tutorial will show you how to install Syncloud on an OpenBSD server.
Before installing Syncloud, you need to install some package dependencies on your OpenBSD server. Run the following command as root to install the required packages:
pkg_add python3 curl rsync
Next, you need to download the Syncloud installation script from the official website using the following command:
curl -sL autoinstall.syncloud.it | sudo sh -
After downloading the installation script, you can install Syncloud using the following command:
sudo syncloud-init
This command will prompt you to enter some installation details like domain name, email address, admin password, and the server's IP address. Fill in the required details and press ENTER to complete the installation.
Once the installation is complete, your Syncloud instance should be up and running. You can access it by entering your server's IP address in a web browser.
https://[your-server-ip-address]/
You will see a login page; enter your admin email address and password to access the dashboard.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install Syncloud on an OpenBSD server. Now, you can self-host your cloud storage to store, access and share your data securely.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
