Hello,
I have no previous experience with CentOS and network administration. Therefore, I would like to emphasize that my questions may be at a basic level. I am currently working on a project and my goal is to be able to access and transfer files between my CentOS 7 computer and a Windows computer over different networks.
My CentOS 7 computer is connected to the internet via ethernet via a modem, which has a static IP address (which I can provide if needed). I have also assigned a static IP address to the CentOS 7 computer. My goal is to use my Windows computer to remotely connect to my CentOS computer over different networks and transfer files.
Best regards
Hello talhakaynak96,
Welcome to the CentOS Community. It sounds like using owncloud or nextcloud would be a good fit for your use. It requires setting up a LAMP stack (Linux Apache MySQL PHP) and getting the files (https://nextcloud.com/athome/) for the server side, then setting things up from there with the right php modules, an SSL Cert, etc.
If your hosting provider is a business level account that allows port 80/443 access then this will work fine, but if this is a home cable / dsl connection, your ISP may have those ports blocked and you may have to run it on a non standard port.
Best of luck.
Chris

Thanks fot helping dear Christopher Wensink I am grateful to you for your advice. I will apply what you have said. Best regards
If this is strictly for internal use and isn’t intended to be publicly accessible, I would install Tailscale on both machines so you don’t have to open/forward any ports.
Make sure SSH is enabled on the CentOS box.
Then use an (S)FTP client such as FileZilla to connect from Windows and upload or download files.
