Hi, thanks. I’ve been testing out NextCloud and it might be a bit too bloated and buggy for me (document editor iffy on mobile and encountering files and folders being falsely locked and thus cannot be interacted with) so I might give sftp a go.

Is there a dockerhub project you would reccomend? I’ve been looking at sftpgo (https://hub.docker.com/r/drakkan/sftpgo) as a option?

Do I just enter the container shell and check GID and UID of a random file?

Do I need to enter the container bash and change something then? I tried adding UID and GID to the docker compose file, but it still fails. I updated the google docs notes if you want to see my steps.

How do I tell? In the docker-compose.yml file I put the user and password for my server user. I thought that was going to make it work?

Well, I’m not trying to share from within the docker container. I just want to run the samba service from a container. The share is an external hard drive connected to the server. I want to be able to move files to and from the ext hdd from a windows machine.

I would prefer that it’s only accessible for users I approve through some sort of whitelist. That would be friends and family.
