    @rm_ It sometimes feels like a primary school, but it's my company. The fish always stinks from the head, I guess... ;-)

  • Do you use the OwnCloud app for Android? Is it any good?

  • I just (we all) use the iOS version. No complaints.

    It's very basic, not a great deal of thought went into it. It works, that's about it.

  • To be honest, I favourised Seafile at first. But we had so many problems with syncing large amounts of data (and with the mobile clients), that OwnCloud was the better solution in the end.

    I was just wondering because ownCloud is free but they charge for the app lol.

    Y'know android makes it very easy to try before you buy. Wouldn't take a few mins to download an APK and see how it compares to Dropbox for you :P

    Android version works fine

    Yeah I thought about that, but you never know if it's been modified so they can get the password/IP of your cloud server.

    I remember when some people modded an APK for a texting app, which sent out a text to everyone on their contact list saying "I download apps illegally" lol, very awkward in some cases.

  • What, guys - We are talking about an EUR 0.89 app. At least that is the iOS price. You really pirate stuff in that price range? Ah, well... LET, I forgot! ;-)

    And the worst part: there are FREE apps for Owncloud!

    I saw those EUR 0.89 as real small donation to a working and useful free OpenSource software solution that saves me from Dropbox. It was more than worth it from that perspective.

  • And you can always compile your own version of the app. It is Open Source...

  • Who charges for the app? I've always downloaded it for free on the App Store?

  • This thread reminded me that I had a online net set server so was going to setup a mirror of my own cloud/plex setup.

    Can't log in, connection refused.

    I log into the panel, the server is locked for an outgoing IP flood.

    Arse.

    You have been haxxored!!!!!!!111!

  • 0xdragon said: You have been haxxored!!!!!!!111!

    I don't seem to be having much luck these days, that's 2 servers in a week.

  • Yikes. New security settings needed or maybe shut the server down when its idling?

    Consider getting a ~$25 one of these:

    And using:

  • sumo said: Yikes. New security settings needed or maybe shut the server down when its idling?

    Yeh, I literally installed the OS and got sidetracked, didn't do anything on it.

    Although I'm betting I get it back up an nothing's been done at at all.

  • 0xdragon said: Consider getting a ~$25 one of these:

    Nah, one wasn't secured at all, they other got raped via Feathur.

  • That sucks. Hope you'll have better luck soon.

    I was concerned someone may hack into my servers since I'll be in the middle of a few things for a bit so I shut the ones I haven't applied security measures down until I have time to get to them.

    Ah, makes sense. Personally I haven't had a single VPS hacked, guess I'm lucky or my security is paranoid.

    Yeah apparently people got bombarded with SSH login attempts as soon as you install an OS

    Yeah but if I buy it and it sucks I probably won't use it and ownCloud. I'd then rather I donated the EUR 0.89 to Cancer Research.

    Fer fux ache. Well, they took this months payment even though I was suspended, so here's hoping they decide to unsuspend the server in the morning when the techs get in.
