Set up a sub-$50 local fileserver running on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W! [copyparty]

Описание: I've been working on some home networking stuff, setting up local servers and whatnot, and just got a Raspberry Pi 3 B set up with Kiwix and copyparty. My Pi Zero 2 W arrived and I got snowed in from work, so I recorded a video showing you how you can set one up for yourself! Last I saw the Zero 2 Ws are out of stock at Adafruit (my go-to for this kind of stuff) but I'm sure you can still find them elsewhere. I also just got a Zero W (previous generation) in the mail today so I might try setting it up on that and seeing how well it can handle it, we'll see.

Here is the copyparty GitHub page: https://github.com/9001/copyparty

Most of this process was instructed by this guide: https://www.inkyvoxel.com/setting-up-...

This other post by the same person has some other information that could be useful, like setting up unattended upgrades and some security enhancements (I don't think this should be too important for just running this on your local network, but it can't hurt): https://www.inkyvoxel.com/how-to-secu...

Here's a great video for learning about SSH and how to set up keys:

Note on disabling password authentication on the Raspberry Pi for using SSH keys exclusively - you'll need to go into /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/ and edit the file that is inside there (I forget the name exactly, it starts with a number) to disable password authentication - it takes precedence over the sshd_config file, so only editing sshd_config won't actually disable password authentication.

And here's a great quick guide for setting up Kiwix, if you're interested in that: https://github.com/RaynerMDZ/Kiwix-Ra...
