Connect all your PCs to the server so they work together for multiple users. The goal is to use the Peachtree server as a backup hub, copying data from Location 1 and 2 to the server. You don’t need a VPN or a dedicated switch—simply set up the server to manage access and synchronization between the PCs.

Yes, he's created around five videos on that topic, isn't he?

Configure an FTP system, RSync service or another online backup solution on the machine. Ensure it can reach outside its local network. Use dedicated backup tools where you can deploy server applications on the host and run backup agents on individual devices, with periodic transfers of updated files to the central server.

I've noticed many of your videos about Linus, but I'm not sure which one you're asking about. Could you please share the link? Regarding the issue, it seems to happen when multiple users try to access data at the same time from a server located far from where users are based, causing delays or conflicts.

Here’s how you can set up separate virtualization servers for backup and FTP using your X570 motherboard and AMD Ryzen 7 3700X. Follow these steps:

1. **Choose a Virtualization Software**
- Consider options like VirtualBox, VMware Workstation, or Hyper-V (Windows).

2. **Install the OS for Each Server**
- Install a lightweight OS such as Ubuntu or Linux Mint on one server.
- Install Windows on the other server if needed for FTP.

3. **Create Virtual Machines**
- Launch VirtualBox/VMware and create two VMs: one for backup and one for FTP.

4. **Configure Network Settings**
- Set up separate network interfaces or use bridging for isolation.
- Ensure proper IP addressing and firewall rules.

5. **Install Required Software**
- For backup: install tools like rsync, rsync-agent, or third-party backup software.
- For FTP: install FTP client (e.g., FileZilla) and configure access.

6. **Test Connectivity**
- Verify that each VM can access its respective service without interference.

For detailed guidance, you can check this article: [How to Set Up Multiple Virtual Servers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=example) or read the guide on VirtualBox setup.

Let me know if you need help with specific configurations!

How are you connecting to various sites over the internet? Which routers are you using? Just purchase a Dell, HP, or Lenovo server—don’t try DIY setups. Those units function reliably and come with support. Next, install a hypervisor on the server such as Hyper-V Server, ESXi, or Proxmox. Honestly, it seems you lack much knowledge about servers, especially for a small business; consider hiring someone experienced to avoid future issues.
