The Amahi HDA server is a Linux-based home network server.
* It is meant to be headless, and running 24x7.
* Some people also use it as a desktop, while still serving the rest of the home network.
* It has the following features:
** Centralized storage server
** Bare metal backup server
** Calendar server
** Wiki server
** Remote access server (for secure remote access to your files) (i.e. VPN).
** Printer server
** ... and other types of services with plugins:
*** Bittorrent server
*** Slideshow generator
*** Recipes database
*** ... and more!
We think there are two types of users for our HDAs:
* The technical user (the one who installs and runs it)
* The real user of the home network: spouses, kids, etc.
We have a few features that are directed towards making life easier for one or the other, or both. However, ultimately, the real users are the non-technical users.
The features directed towards the technical user are meant to make his/her life easier when running a home network for the benefit of all the users.
