Cygwin just feels "heavy" when all I want is rsync. Without any package management (that I'm aware of) I can't just install rsync and whatever other dependencies it has, I have to put hunderds? more binaries on my system.
There is also a linux subsystem for windows 10 which I have never used. Perhaps someone can say if that has rsync.
[ edit ] if that and cygwin are too heavy, you could request the samba team create a posix windows build of rsync. They had one long ago, but stopped supporting it. That would be a single binary. I suspect they will push back.
"alive and well" might be a stretch. I don't know a soul who plugs their devices into their computers. Using VLC to watch media is also a blast from the past. Grandpa, is that you?
This might be a silly question but I've honestly tried to Google it without any success. Is there an easy way to put something like this behind a web based "portal". Like, I'd love to have an external facing login site that would allow me to access internal resources like this. I currently use OpenVPN but it'd be neat if this could be done via a web based portal without the need for a heavy VPN solution. Anyone have any suggestions?
Hello, I appreciate the reply but I was looking to replace my OpenVPN solution which allows me to visit websites that aren't publicly accessible. Going the htpass route would require opening up each individual service to the Internet and then mapping the internal ports to a unique external port (as they all listen on port 80)
This seems like a really complex way to solve a simple problem. Have an intern spend a day creating Visio diagrams of each room capturing model numbers. Trying to do this from a network perspective just seems like an easy way to miss half the systems or whatever percentage isn't powered on or connected.
