Dropbox type system on LAN?

Question

Data synchronization

Hello, the task is to synchronize project files (projects) between computers in the local network. Dropbox would be 100% suitable if it did not work via the Internet. Who knows, tell me, please. The admin tried some OwnCloud, but then refused it, said that it was buggy.
UPD
The files must be located locally, and not located on some nfs.

Answer 1

Answer 2

Answer 3

I recently tried to do this:
- I created a folder on one computer, shared it;
- connected this folder on another computer and configured it to be available offline.
Everything is perfectly synchronized, although not instantly, within 5-10 seconds. But for storing, for example, documents or other rarely updated content, that's it.
If I didn’t take something into account, I’ll listen again. The experiment was done after a similar question in ICQ.

Answer 4

To this topic. If anyone knows, a normal file synchronizer between 2 folders. Not symlinks.

Answer 5

projects, files, umm, samba? nfs?

Answer 6

I had an idea "in 5 minutes" but haven't tried it.
The balls at the stations are mounted on the server, and rsync is sequentially passed through them, once a minute for example. True, with a large volume, the load will be ... hmm, and it is not clear how to resolve conflicts. And so, keeping the directories up to date is quite, kmk.

Answer 7

SparkleShare , you just need to raise the server with GIT as I understand it

Answer 8

Let's clarify - what kind of systems do end users have and are there servers?

Answer 9

There is such a thing in the Microsoft server - it's called DFS, it really only works between servers, but it does what you need.
In general, it is quite possible that you can get an answer to a question by formulating it not in terms of a solution, but in terms of a goal - why do you need such a functional?

Answer 10

There is a free program Synkron
, you can create a ball on the server and synchronize files with it - it can work on a timer, and indeed it can do a lot of things.
There is a craft from MS - called SyncToy , but it will have to be run through cron / task scheduler.
