How to use ISPConfig and Seafile without manual file modifications
Author: Rescue9 •
Tags: apache, centos, control panels, debian, ispconfig, linux, ubuntu, web server •
Comments: 6 Seafile is an open-source cloud based file storage system similar to Dropbox & Box. The difference is that Seafile can be deployed on a client's own system. This provides a greater safety and security factor as the passwords are only interchanged between the client who setup the system, and his / her own users rather than a corporate cloud hosting company.
