Hi guys,

Not sure if this is possible or how it might work but I am trying to get away from using commercial Cloud storage such as OneDrive and set up my own securely but as well as being convenient.

While I can connect to a vpn and then upload and download the files, that is a hassle that I do not want to deal with if possible. My idea is to get a VPS, install owncloud, and then install a VPN back into my network, and have the owncloud database stored locally on my machine but only be able to access the owncloud instance on the VPS so that I don't have to let anything through my own network etc.

​

The only problem I am seeing here is how to set the owncloud database locally and link it back to the instance on a VPS.

I did look into using zerotrust cloudflare tunnels, just not something I want to expose to cloudflare, as well as running it through NPM souly.

If anyone has any additional ideas or input on this, that would be greatly appreciated!
