Hey Matthias, It sounds like all you are trying to do is host a file on a server, but the consumer lexicon may be confusing you. I recommend these two links: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#CloudComputing https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/who-does-that-server-really-serve.html Best of luck and take care, -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com
