You must see something like above, the one that you want is fuse or cifs depending on what kind of remote file system you want to mountĪnother important thing is before attempting to set up a VPN ensure that your kernel has support for TUN/TAP if it does not have it, stop there and change your VPS provider because the one that you have is not worth it Note: in order to use a remote file system, your kernel’s VPS should have enabled the support for such systems cat /proc/filesystems nodev cgroup nodev devpts nodev mqueue ext4 nodev nfs nodev nfs4 nodev delayfs nodev devtmpfs nodev sysfs nodev proc nodev tmpfs nodev binfmt_misc nodev fusectl nodev fuse Now you can access the files on the external drive attached to the pi as if they were on your server, the next task would be install plex on the VPS and put it work… yeah, that works, however, when I did it, my VPS provider was not happy about it, in fact, you will find that most VPS providers do not allow you to install software as PLEX on the VPS (yes, it sucks) I think it is because of the CPU usage or something like that, anyway, this leads us to the second approach. In this way what happens is that you are mounting the file system with something like this sshfs /vps/far/drive We can ssh into the VPS but not backward, how to solve this? we need to set up a VPN, once the VPN is done we will have bidirectional communication, after this, we can make use of a remote file system, to do so, it can be used either SSHFS, SAMBA or NAS, basically, it would leave us with something like this This means that we only have a directional data connection with the VPS
I won’t dig a lot on this version since this was my first attempt but it didn’t go well 😦 An external drive (I know you have one that you use to keep your door open :v)Įdit 2020: check this new version using free resources from Oracle cloud.We want to be able to listen to our music from any place, any moment using almost only electronic waste 😀
