Set up a home server easily with Amahi (Linux)
Running your own server can bring a great many benefits to your home network, not least of which is the ability to share documents, pictures, videos and music across multiple devices.
In this video we'll set up a server from scratch using the free and open source Amahi, and familiarise ourselves with its easy to use web interface. Along the way we'll create an account for a new user and add a shared network drive, before connecting to the server from a Windows PC.
Additionally, we'll look at how to install an app in Amahi to gain extra functionality. We'll also connect to the new home server from a mobile device. Then, to finish, we'll cover a couple of troubleshooting steps - just in case!
