Thread: What's a good DIY Dropbox you can run from your own server?

i use dropbox on machines because works on sorts of platforms (from windows, mac , linux cell phone) , automatically syncs files change right after they're changed. i'm on border of running out of free space. love able have magic folder that's not limited in space , have ability share folders others, or public links others. suggestions?

i have no idea if there ready-to-use scripts or applications can use, here's idea...

make bash-script uploads content of folder server, here's pseudo code:

code:

#!/bin/bash ftp ip usr:pas ~/sync/ /ftp/upload/sync/

then use cron scheduled uploads (eg: every 15th min) keep files synced.

but... wouldn't trick winsnooze machine , might not optimal solution phone.

easiest solution of course buy more space @ dropbox , support awesome product.
i'm loving myself have yet run out of space.
