I know google drive has a sync folder now and that most office documents placed within that folder will sync automatically with google drive. However, in order to edit, for example, an excel spreadsheet that has been synched to google drive, I have to convert it to a google doc. That means that any edits I make to the original excel file on my desktop will not sync with the newly created google doc. Is there any app or something that I can use that can sync changes made to an excel file on my desktop (I am using a Mac) to its google doc counterpart in google drive and vice versa?? I'd still like to do most of my edits using the Office software when possible...
Thanks!

As far as I'm aware, you can't.
You'll need to use a different cloud service, or don't convert them to Google docs if you want to use office software. Office software and Google cloud are competing products that do not have direct compatibility.

I have an issue within a corporate network that nobody internally seems to know the answer to so I thought I would ask here.
Having recently been upgraded to Office 365 we use Sharepoint. When uploading documents to the Sharepoint site it appears to save them in a newly created OneDrive folder.
Anyone with access to the SharePoint site will find a link to the document store within their personal OneDrive.
So my question is whether anyone knows if this is the default behaviour and if the files are actually being stored in OneDrive.
The reason I ask is that some documents for governance reasons cannot be stored on SharePoint or OneDrive but there does not appear to be any way of changing where files are stored.
Thanks for any insight.
The reason I ask is there does not appear to be any way with the updated office suite to
According to your description, the problem seems to be related to the syncing of files from SharePoint to OneDrive, you can try to stop the sync and see if the problem can be solved.

We have on premise GitLab. Is it possible to stop people from uploading all kinds of files eg. resist people from pushing in .exe files.
I've already looked at gitlabs apis, couldn't find anything relevant
Yes can prohibit certain file names in the push rules, or could reduce the maximum file size to discourage people from uploading .exe files
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/push_rules/push_rules.html
As #Iron Bishop pointed out this feature is not available in the free plan.
Alternatively, if you are so inclined, you could contribute a filter to the Gitlab code base and then use it. It should be fairly simple to add since the framework for filtering is already in place.
Comment here, if you need further help or want to explore the custom code option.
Cheers and all the best.

Since I am not that experienced with Linux this might be an easy, if not too simple question for you. Recently I met an old friend of mine and I want to exchange some files with him. In fact I could send the files by E-Mail or share them by Dropbox or something like that but I want to make use of Linux and my RaspberryPi.
Here, the RaspberryPi can be accessed via SSH and I want my friend to be able to access one specific directory. The one where I place the files.
I don't want him to mess around in the system. Ideally he should be able to only see this one directory.
Is it enough if I create a user and put the files in his home directory?
Thanks in advance
See this introduction to permission management on Linux.
To answer your Question:
Is it enough if I create a user and put the files in his home directory?
Yes, but it's not a perfect solution because the home folder of an user contains some subfolders.

I've seen others host images on Dropbox. Is there a way to find out the user hosting the file?
For example, if I post a Dropbox picture online, can any user find my name or username? Can link it to other uploads?
Thanks
Dropbox links are obfuscated, meaning there is no way to tell the directory structure by looking at the link. Also, contents on the same folder might have name close to one another but their shared link will be different. For example:
/Public/reports/doc1.txt -> www.dropbox.com/s/32nwq9a6y9q74hr/doc1.txt
/Public/reports/doc2.txt -> www.dropbox.com/s/wmveygkiea16sme/doc2.txt
So, there is no way to find link to other uploads (even in the same folder). Also, opening the shared link does not show any information about the host user. If viewer is logged in, it will show the viewer at the corner of the page.
However, the user might be exposed based on the metadata on the files that are uploaded. When user uploads a file, dropbox retains the metadata in that file. So, someone with the link can download the file (along with metadata) and find sensitive user information. For example, image files in these days contains information about the device, geolocation, time of modification etc. This does not give away the user account but can leak other information.

I have two linux web servers (X and Y) serving my website by load-balancer, the user can upload his file (image for example) via web form, this file will go to
/var/www/files/token/filename.ext
NOW THE QUESTION IS:
How Could I keep files directory synchronized in real time manner between the two servers (given that files directory contains sub and sub-sub directories in it. I don't want to use NFS (for the purpose of high availability)
Any scenario is highly appreciated
Linux kernel has a feature called "inotify" which detects inode changes, in this case, it can be used to detect change in directory content. But I am not sure if there is any CLI tool for it.
Once change is detected, we can use common file synchronization tools such as rsync to synchronize new/changed files to other servers.
This idea is more like "pushing", which is more responsive than polling at regular interval.
