Collaboration means file storage, document management, video conferencing, shared event calendars, and things like that. As a rule, people tend to trust personal life and business to third-party services. However, there is an option to keep it all on your own server.
|
|
|
|
We choose [Nextcloud](https://nextcloud.com/) - free software for convenient scheduling and file storage.
|

- [Official project website](https://nextcloud.com/)

# Authentication
|
|
|
|
When creating a server, `admin` Nextcloud user is created with the password you've used for
|
|
your primary user.
|
|
|
|
To add new users, go to the user administration panel, on the web interface of your Nextcloud.
|
|
|
|
## Recommended clients

## How to reset the admin password
|
|
|
|
To follow the steps below, you'll need to connect to the server via SSH with administrative rights. A basic understanding of the command line is beneficial ;)
|
|
|
|
For detailed connection instructions, [click here](https://selfprivacy.org/docs/how-to-guides/root_ssh/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
After connecting, enter the following command:
|
|
|
|
```nextcloud-occ user:resetpassword admin```
|
|
|
|
You will prompted for a new password, the characters will be hidden.

## FAQ
|
|
|
|
### Nextcloud Updater does not work
|
|
It's fine, it should be. Nextcloud is updated via NixOS, and depends on our NixOS repository. Everything happens without your intervention.
|
|
|
|
### Why can't I use my Nextcloud in third-party services?
|
|
This can happen if the third-party service has a restriction to only connect to a specific Nextcloud instance.
|
|
|
|
### Should I use an extension to encrypt my Nextcloud?
|
|
We do not recommend it. The encryption keys are stored on the server, which makes such encryption practically useless.
