First, I would like to introduce myself briefly. I am Mike, 26 years old and I’m currently studying at Erasmus University College in Brussels.
For a lesson "Trends & Talents" I must develop a project independently that is not given in another lesson. I already started another post before deciding to use this project as my school project ( https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=5132 ).
The main idea is to build a Linux server with 2 main goals, a web server and a personal NAS(mainly for home use).
Web server
For now I own a domain name with a web hosting and no SSL.
I will install and configure Apache, MariaDB and PHP to run my HTML/PHP website, additional I will install tomcat and java to run my java projects.
I will use Let’s encrypt and Certbot to handle the SSL/TLS-certificates to make sure that all the traffic uses the safer HTTPS protocol.
NAS
Now I own a Netgear Readynas 102 with 2x3TB WD red disks, this to share my files in my home network. My Readynas is synced with a Cloud service through my Laptop.
The 2x3TB disk will be connected to the Rock with 2 “USB 3.0 to SATA III HARD DRIVE ADAPTER CABLE/ CONVERTER with UASP” cables connected to a USB 3.0 hub. I will install and configure SAMBA to share the drives in my home network over the Gigabit ethernet port.
The drives will be synced to the cloud directly from the Rock (Encrypted or not encrypted, not sure yet)
I will use a 4GB version with Debian Stretch Minimal Community Build Image by ayufan.
Most of the hardware is already ready and I’m now playing and testing with the software for the last 3 months, step by step I will post the made progress.
I will use this board to post my progress and hopefully to receive tips, tricks and feedback from you, the readers, I’ll try to share everything like schematics, scripts and step by step explanation how I installed or configured scripts and/or software.
