TrueNAS. Организация файлового сервера у клиента c возможностью удаленного доступа

Недавно позвонил мне знакомый — у них в организации возникла потребность в файловом сервере. Первым делом я, конечно, предложил что-то проверенное, вроде готового решения от Synology. У меня уже был опыт настройки таких NAS — всё понятно, удобно и стабильно работает.Правда, был ещё опыт с файловыми помойками на Windows Server — и, честно говоря, удовольствия от них немного.

You know you grew up lower-middle-class if the most stressful sound of your childhood was the phone ringing at dinner — and you understood, before anyone explained it, that some calls meant someone needed something the family didn’t quite have, and that understanding became the background noise of every evening for years

That dinner-time ring wasn't just a phone call — it was the soundtrack to a childhood spent watching your parents' faces change, learning to read financial stress like other kids learned to read books, and understanding that your family was always one call away from a crisis they couldn't quite afford.
