WebDAV is not the answer to my questions. Nobody here is going to work all day out of Cyberduck.
What... what are you talking about here? WebDAV connects identically to how a SMB share connects on a Windows machine. You simply mount it as a shared drive or add the WebDAV URL as a quick access point.

Whoops, turns out that the execs of MegaUpload aren't the real criminals here...
That's not what they said - but they did say the government was likely/was acting as outside their jurisdiction.
Yes, that means they were criminals.
But it doesn't excuse the criminals they were chasing - just lets them possibly go free since the gov't didn't follow proper procedure.
Not sure we can call these criminals... maybe accused?

OK good - I wasn't the only one wondering what Cyberduck was all about
Cyberduck is a webdav explorer. It has its uses to test (as it can accept invalid SSL certs, whereas Windows needs a properly signed one) but it's not a production software meant to be worked in day-to-day.

I just spotted yet another space sim developer starting to promote yet another new game: http://imgur.com/a/YVU53
Tiny studio that really hits above their weight. Open universe games where you can greatly influence the economy.
X: Rebirth was really good. Really decent open world game.

I use NC and love it like everyone else. However for this scenario, Office online and one drive is the best tool for what you are trying to accomplish.
It's simple, easy to use and requires very minimal training since the company is already likely utilizing office . It functions just like the desktop versions in every way and makes file sharing extremely easy.
When I tested with OneDrive over a year ago, it wasn't syncing files the way we need. It wasn't letting us sync to desktop any shared folders. I believe it might be able to do this now, I'd have to test again.
We do have Office365 but we don't have accounts for every user individually. Some of our office computers are shared and so multiple people might be working under the same user.
I personally have my own O365 business account for my home business and I've found it to work pretty well although I don'y have any shared folders with other people.
I feel like it's been only a couple months since I scrubbed onedrive off all our computers cause it wasn't working right. Feels wrong to go right back to it again. What a pain.
One Drive Sharing in itself should be sufficient. If I create a file, I can share with certain users or everyone and they are able to see it under "Shared with Me" directly under their OneDrive.
If it is shared in OneDrive, then why copy it to a network shared folder? That doesnt really make any sense? I can understand copying it locally of course, but why the need for it to be in a shared folder?
Btw that is very bad practice to share accounts like that, which I am sure you already know.
To my knowledge (tested about a year ago), OneDrive folders when shared could not be synced to local computers. It would only sync your own folders. This may have changed but local computer sync simply couldn't be done back when I used it.
I'm not doing a second copy to a local shared folder. I simply want local sync period. Obviously if our share becomes a lot larger than 11GB, it will begin to make more sense to not sync absolutely everything. But the folder isn't growing that fast so I'll wait for that day.
Syncing 11 GB just seems like a horrible situation. How do these system deal with file locks?
I'm in your same exact boat. If I want to move to LANLess, I'm going to have to break my users away from a general sync'ed drive - at least in my mind. Sync your personal files, but the central shared filestore - that's likely going to have to go on a checkout like basis with SharePoint or maybe NextCloud - but it will require re-education of users on how to use it.
Modern SaberDAV (the WebDAV server that NextCloud uses) can handle file locks similar to Sharepoint. WebDAV is a transitional technology in my mind but it does a fantastic job of it.
What really amazes me is that NK has a GDP half that of Montana. Yet they are investing in one of the most expensive R&D projects of modern times.

I provide pros and cons, options, and prices, and lay out the risks. They make the decisions.
Exactly, and their responses are how they tell you how much they see the data as being worth.
It's a catch 22 though. If they decide they want to take some risk, and then bad things happen, they don't own up to it, they just attack me like "why didn't you prepare for that!"
Either way, I end up the bad guy.
Everything in writing. Literally. Also get out of there. They aren't paying you enough obviously.
@irj said in Travel Advice - Looking for a Reasonable Mountain Cabin:
My friends and I are trying to organize a fishing trip to a remote area late spring or early summer. I have started looking at cabins in the Adirondacks. There seem to be plenty available and the pricing seems reasonable. However I wanted to look at other regions in North America (U.S. and Canada) for comparison.
I know most of you aren't fishermen, but many have travel experience that may help make a decison.
I asked my brother-in-law who is a sports fisherman in Wisconsin.
There are a bunch. How far do they want to travel? Look at the thousand lakes region of Minnesota. Western/South-Western Wisconsin, Western PA. All have a ton of lakes and some fantastic fishing. We go up around Obedjiwan Quebec every year to do a weeks worth of fishing, love that trip well worth it.

One issue with the app only access - what happens when you change apps? i.e. switching from using Adobe Acrobat to PDF Element? Is it now up to the OS to know what files belong to what app? or is there simply a single folderless dumping ground for all files?
All modern OSes already handle that. It's a long ago solved problem.
By all modern, I assume you mean Chrome OS/android and iOS? but not windows?
I'm not following? Windows can manage file types in this fashion as well. Must have missed something.
He's in Northern Wisconsin now and there are a ton of lakes around him. He was going out almost every weekend prior to his son being born.

There's a very important reason why Ubiquiti's 10GbE switch is sub $1K while a purebred Cisco is orders of magnitude above that in cost. Engineering.
Or Marketing and Name Recognition.
And while searching the meme.
Pretty accurate although the snowline is a bit further north now.
@NerdyDad said in Live Streaming Church Services:
I've been hearing about Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) for such things as this. Kind of has that "Producer in the back room calling the shots" feel. Able to be deployed on Windows, Mac, or Linux and is ready to interface with YouTube, Twitch, and such.
I was just going to recommend this. OBS is a really professional mixing software designed for live streaming. It can do multiple video and audio inputs and best of all it is open source.

I didn't like the 2nd. But the 3rd was much better, not quite on par with the 1st but still a decent movie.

OBS is for streaming. It's popular specifically for streaming.
Not to mention that is a Software video mixer. It can do pretty much anything the hardware one can with a bit of tweaking. The only thing they would need to get is a PC with video and audio inputs.

Voyager 1 did. Voyager 2 is still in the Heliosheath.
Seems like it wouldn't be difficult to setup a secure location outside of cabin Maple, or cabin Spruce and then home run everything there... you're pretty much already running the conduit. Then run a fiber (or Cat6e if the distance isn't that large) back to the main office. Otherwise treating this as a WISP and each cabin as a subscriber would be the best solution.
Played a bit of Xcom and subnautica this weekend. Both are very good.
