I do not know if I did understand clearly but, I was thinking about that for a startup idea, I think is definitively possible.
There is way to have a hard disk on your wifi and get it from an app but only for video/photo. And there is a way to connect to a distant linux/window server.
I think it my be possible, but need some technical skill more than juste website development
- Fifer82 6y agoThis does get at the heart of it. But my problem is that, surely Windows itself has this service providing "somehow" that I can know where in the world the computer is, and from there, make it some kind of network drive? Like what I do between the kitchen and the bedroom only, 30 miles away. As the user, I see `C:/` `D:/` `fifer82:/`. Unless it is literally that easy, it won't happen.
- SStanley 6y agoYou can connect to that computer using ssh
- johnnyo 6y agoNo, you can’t do that, because Windows allows you to share on a local network, but not the entire world. And sharing that drive on the open internet would be a really, really bad idea.
- Fifer82 6y agoThank you, so in the very end, you must go through a service of some kind to make this possible? Not arsed about security.
- johnnyo 6y agoYes, this feature is not available in a standard Windows installation for a number of reasons. You’ll need to use some kind of 3rd party tool to configure and maintain such a setup
