I need/want a free, centralised, shared file system for documents.
The main challenge I am looking to solve is having revisions to a document present in more than one folder automatically updating in the others.
To date I've been using Win file explorer on a centralised server (for internals)combined with dropbox (for externals). But the challenge is having to update, and check, the various versions.
A diagram might help, see below.
eg when I edit and update Doc1 contained in: MainFile/something/subsomething/A/somethingelse and Doc 1 is also present in: External File/A Tom, Dick and Harry all get the correct version rather than me having to delete and copy Doc1.
Does that make sense?
Or is there some feature in Dropbox I'm missing which does this?
