[Freedombox-discuss] FreedomBox as file server?

[Kevin Steen]

I just took the plunge and set up my first FreedomBox - congratulations 
to everyone who has worked to make this possible.

Of course I have a few questions...

Is there a FreedomBox-way to setup file serving?
I've got sftp working, but that requires the user account to be an admin 
user. Is there a way to allow sftp access using another LDAP group?

The FreedomBox appears in my File Manager (Thunar) under Browse Network, 
but with a suggested username of fbx and path /home/fbx. I modified the 
Avahi service definition to remove both of those so that double-clicking 
logs in with my account name.

Is there a standard place to store user files, other than 
/home/<username>? I'm thinking of something like:
   /files/
   /files/usb1
as something easier for novices to understand.

Thanks in advance
