Docker! So why not running Dropbox inside a docker container better? As for the filesystem, which was already XFS and I had no intention to change that, I’ve decided to use VeraCrypt to create an encrypted EXT4 partition on my actual XFS filesystem. I was pretty close to just say a well deserved “ Fuck you!” then it hitted me. Apparently, with XFS, the files are never synced. More, it seems that’s mandatory to have an EXT4 filesystem in order to sync the remote files locally. After a little bit of researching and googling, it seems that the latest version requires you to have GLIBC >= 2.19 version (by default, on latest CentOS 7.6 the default GLIBC version is 2.17). It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities. This process involves building a new machine, testing and migrating all of the applications, and then decommissioning the old machine. The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical distributed naming system for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network. Unfortunatelly, for some reason I was not able to make it work (the CLI). Anchor recommends that anyone still running these, or any previous versions, should migrate to a new machine running a supported operating system, such as CentOS 7, which is the current stable release. But since I didn’t want to use my Google Drive to store some specific files I’ve decided to give Dropbox a try on my CentOS 7 server. that no longer meet Dropboxs minimum requirement of glibc > 2.19, such as CentOS 6 and 7.



Dropbox was never on my favourite list because I’ve always used Google Drive. Maestral is an open-source Dropbox client written in Python.
