Hey #linux #debian people: it’s occurring to me that #rclone might not actually be the best way to do what I’m doing. So: if you had two Debian servers on a vpn, both with 1 gig fiber links to the internet, in cities 100 km apart, how would you go about having shared filesystems between them? Right now I am using rclone mount with sftp. Is there a less janky way?

Thanks for the help, everyone! #NFS is the way to go, and a lot simpler than I thought. For anyone discovering this later, the guide I'm using is this one: github.com/zilexa/Homeserver/tree/master/Filesystems-guide/networkshares_HowTo-NFSv4.2 Credits to everyone for the suggestions, ideas, and assurance that this isn't going to be as hard as I thought it would be: @yo, @dlakelan, @tripplehelix, @quanin, @modulux,

BTW Pretty sure the /srv stuff isn't even necessary anymore if you share more than one folder.
