How To Create An HTTP Upload Server

Theory: The idea is to create a file-server server that supports uploading/downloading files over Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

This can either be done using simple standalone software or complex Apache/Nginx configurations.

With regards to security and scalability for all entries below, stunnel or Squid can be used to proxy connections to the HTTP server software (or any other service actually) to handle TLS termination externally. Stunnel can be combined with the EFF's Certbot and the Let's Encrypt CA to support authentication as well.

To aid in network availability, Cloudflare can provide distributed internet-based caching, or, for local-only systems, Squid could be configured to support caching.

So here are some of the available options:

How To Create A NAS Using ZFS and Proxmox

Let's virtualize all the things! And also set up a NAS seedbox.

Theory:
The idea is to create a standalone server that uses ZFS, transfer files to it and selectively share those files using file sharing protocols.

The Internet and Hosting Providers

The Internet:

• A term used to collectively describe the interconnected heterogenous networks that route packets worldwide using Internet Protocol (IP).

Domain Name System (DNS):

• A Domain Name System (DNS) server, among other things, resolves Uniform Resource Locator (URL) style names into IP v4/v6 addresses or points to the DNS server that can. DNS servers normally operate over TCP and UDP using port 53. Client lookups normally use UDP but can fallback to TCP. TCP vs UDP
• Examples: BIND, Microsoft's DNS Server
• Comparison of DNS server software

BitTorrent Tracker Theory

BitTorrent Trackers are Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) or User Datagram Protocol (UDP) servers that keep a list of peers associated with an info_hash and return that peer_list when queried. Thus, at their core, trackers have no knowledge of the files clients are exchanging. Some trackers are configured to only keep peer_lists for certain info_hashes (registered torrents) or to only return the peer_list to certain query requests (registered peers). In common parlance, some websites operate as front-ends for tracker software so are referred to as "trackers." This is technically incorrect, but this diction shall be used going forward.
