Why /opt/whatever?

There is no real reason to use /opt

I believe years ago it was considered more secure but I don't think that is the case now (have a good read in the forums on the subject). Just use an ibay.

There are then various ways to acess files eg Shared Folders, Pydio etc etc. Ftp is not the most secure method.....

1. Read the Manual
2. Read the Wiki
3. Don't ask for support on Unsupported versions of software
4. I have a job, wife, and kids and do this in my spare time. If you want something fixed, please help.
