Hi there!
I’ve got a beginner question, I just set up an old PC to be used as a media server with Plex.
I have Ubuntu server installed on the server.
I am wondering, can I also use it as a sort of makeshift file server?
And then access them with SFTP from my other PC?
Is that good enough? I mean it will work, but is Ubuntu Server and SFTP really everything I need to have a working server? What are the downsides?
I mean if you have enabled ssh then Sftp will be working by default on Ubuntu. Might be easier to access it via samba since the windows file explorer supports it natively but you will need to configure samba
