[PLUG] Personal Cloud

[Louis Kowolowski]

I’ve been using ownCloud as a FreeNAS plugin for a number of years. It works quite nicely. I also have things setup such that I can use a VPN (to my house) and ownCloud will keep things in sync between my laptop and desktop. Its quite convenient.

From a security perspective, I’d suggest not exposing ownCloud to the internet. Its a PHP app and PHP isn’t well known for being secure.
