Vlux Drive

Vlux Drive — files team-wide, without the cloud

Shared folders inside your own network: files live on the server, your device only shows the skeleton, loaded on open, wiped on close. Runs entirely on the LAN — you only need Bastion when you want secure access from the road.

Works entirely without Bastion

Vlux Drive works fully within your local network — server, PCs and devices share folders directly, no internet required. Vlux Bastion is an optional extra layer: it only comes into play once you also want secure access to your files from the road. Drive and Bastion are two separate building blocks — combine them if you want, but you don't have to.

In beta Vlux Drive — now functional in the beta software.

Vlux Drive — collaborative files, without the cloud

The office-server alternative for anyone who takes their data seriously — families, businesses, law firms. On save, the file goes back to the server, the local copy is wiped. Your own hardware, full data sovereignty.

How it works

The Vlux server (Pi, PC or server) shares folders. All authorized devices see the files as skeletons in their normal file view — small reference files, not actual contents. Only on click does the file download temporarily; you edit it as usual with Word, Excel or a PDF editor. On save, the file flows back to the server, the local copy is wiped.

Conflict avoidance like Git

While you’re editing a file, it’s locked for others — no double work, no version collisions. When you’re done (or your lease expires), the system releases the file again. Works the same in a family setup or a multi-person firm.

Per-file versioning

Every change is recorded with timestamp and device identity. Traceable at any time who changed what when — useful for everyone, indispensable for licensed professionals on legal inquiry.

Secure on the road

When you or your team access a file remotely, it goes through Vlux Bastion — hardened, vetted, approved by you. As soon as you go offline: local copy gone, risk on device loss is zero. Whether you’re a freelancer with customer files or a law firm with client data.

Vlux Drive is up and running in the beta software. If you have questions: get in touch.

Thank you.

The beta phase is starting now — with a fixed group of testers.

Beta running

Thank you to our beta testers

You're entering the beta with us while VluxNet is still young, and you're giving us your trust. You report bugs, shape features and help decide where the journey goes. That is exactly what makes the difference. From the heart: thank you.

Applications currently closed

The beta is running with a fixed group — we're not accepting further applications at this time. General availability is coming; then VluxNet will be open to everyone.
