Cloudron Forum

Hello @msbt @msbt said in Connection to server takes 10 seconds in FTP mode and port changes don't work: you think it might be worth reporting upstream? No. I've tested this on another SFTPGo instance that is outside the Cloudron ecosystem, and it worked with no issues. So I must assume we have a mistake somewhere.

@jdaviescoates Yes I know, this was more of a general feature request lol

Thank you @James In the interim, I am attempting a workaround <can't find fingers-crossed emoji>

@cocam123 Cloudron does not support installing external software as such. With that warning, https://docs.cloudron.io/networking/#whitelist-ports will help you expose the port. Cloudron has it's own firewall written on top of iptables and does not use ufw.

@nebulon Thank you, I will investigate today and let you know.

@girish & @mehdi - thanks for your advice! It gave me the idea to Tailscale. I installed it on the Cloudron server and was able to successfully mount a shared folder from my Synology using cifs. However, even though the data persists between reboots, I don't see the data on the Synology, even when I'm logged in as the root user. I'm not quite the linux expert, but I noticed that when I changed Nextcloud's appdata folder to point to the mount, it created it as a "root" user. On the Synology, I created a Cloudron user that has the necessary permissions and I mounted the shared folder with the Cloudron user, password, and domain. So, I'm thinking this has something to do with user IDs not matching up or something like that. I'm nervous about moving forward since I can't actually see the data on my Synology. Would you or anyone else have any advice? By the way, this is how I mounted it: sudo mount -t cifs -o credentials=/etc/nas-credentials,vers=3.0 //nas/Cloudron /mnt/nas In fstab, the command is: //nas/Cloudron cifs -o credentials=/etc/nas-credentials,vers=3.0,_netdev,auto 0 0 Thanks for all your help!
