It can be an ip address, if you have a static ip. If you’re planning to host this on the open internet and have a dynamic ip (home internet is most likely for this), or static and don’t want to pay for a top level domain you can use a service like noip.com for a free address like “test.ddns.net”
You can also change this after the initial setup in Nextcloud’s config.php as well as as additional domain names/ip addresses that can reach the server.
alright then i think imma setup with a free one and then buy one, its only $10 a year
thank u :)
A .ovh domain is more like $3 a year. That’s what I’m using.
and just to get this right, if i want to acess it outside of my lan, i cant use my ip? i dont think my ip changes, has been the same as long as i remember
Yes you can use your ip, a domain name is just way easier to remember! :-)
so then do I just put in my IP into that field? and I’m guessing this can just changed later? I’d like to finish setup without spending money, and get a domain later
Just don’t mix up public and private IP. You cant use private IP outside of your LAN if you want to access it when you on the go.
